“You shall generously give to him, and your heart shall not be grieved when you give to him, because for this thing the LORD your God will bless you in all your work and in all your undertakings.” Deuteronomy 15:10
Sometimes I get so busy that I lose myself. I begin to wonder why I am not functioning at my very best level. My thoughts become muddled, my ability to concentrate seems to fly out the window. At times like these I know I need to take control of and reorder my life. I must take stock of what things are most important, what things must be accomplished and in what order. And the first order of business is prayer.
When I step back and look at what I am busy about I realize that there are certain things that can be let go, but prayer is never one of them. If I begin to cut back on prayer time it seems that chaos begins to rule. When I refocus and look to God for direction, order begins to rule, Divine Order.
Here is a little prayer I recently came across that even the busiest of us can appreciate! “Oh Lord, You know how busy I must be this day: If I forget You, Do not You forget me.” (Prayer of Sir Jacob Astley before the battle of Edgehill)
