Here's something to think about;often people fail to have time to pray and even when they do they just rush thru prayer so that they will have time to do the many other things that keep them so busy.
The "many other things" that prevent people from praying sometimes are work,school,house chores,& even leisure.
But when death knocks,you won't be able to tell it that you are so busy with the "many things" and therefore it should come later.
All those things keeping you busy will have to remain undone while you answer the call of death and go on to eternity.
We get so busy in life,its all irrelevant in eternity!
What we should be doing is to be so busy seeking God because that's an eternal investment.
If you say you can't pray because you are too busy,yet you have time to eat,and you have time to browse,time to chit chat,then you are not too busy,you have simply deemed Jesus as unimportant.
If really you are so very busy,then its better you even fail to have time to eat and you use that time to pray instead!
And its better you stay offline and use that time to pray instead.
Its better you are so busy praying that you don't even have time to do anything else,than for you to be so busy doing everything else that you don't even have time to pray!
God must be honored in our lives and one of the ways we honor Him is by giving Him the time He deserves!
Its sacrifice. If you want to wait for when you don't have anything else to do,that's when you will pray,you will never pray.
Satan will make sure you are so busy till you die busy and go to hell.
Whatever you deem more important than God is your god.
We need to learn to choose what is important.
Like Mary,who chose to sit and listen to the words of Jesus even when she knew there was "serving of visitors" to be done,while her sister Martha was so busy serving that she couldn't sit down and listen.
Jesus said Mary chose what was important.
What is important is to have a relationship with God,to spend time with Him.
It doesn't matter if you fail to clean your house because you were busy praying or if you fail to catch up with that friend of yours,it doesn't matter if you fail to cook or even to eat,you won't die because you failed to do any of those things.
If our lives are so busy that we can't pray or read the bible, its time to make the sacrifice. Its time to choose what is important, or else we will die busy.
