God loves being with us. I remember a song by Larnelle Harris called I Miss My Time with You. It’s written from the perspective of how God misses us when we’re too busy to be with Him. It’s true. After all, He’s our “Abba Father.” He loves us like a daddy would.
Way too many Christians try to fit a time with God into their day, if they spend time with Him at all. The better option is to fit our day around our time with God! Try making choices based on that. You may need to cut back on some activities. Draw a timeline of your day. What can be penciled out? Where does the majority of your time go? Maybe you need to turn the TV off and go to bed earlier at night so you can get up and pray before you go about your day. You may need to invest in a good alarm clock and learn to set it. One choice I’ve made is not to turn my computer on before I’ve spent time with the Lord. Without a doubt something draws my attention away from God and before I know it, time is gone!
