Reasons

Just Streching A Bit Before Running Around At 3 AM For No Reason



            Do you ever question what you are doing when you just seem to be on the go all the time?  I think some have nervous energy and feel the need to be busy all the time.  Some, on the other hand, are always busy helping others however they can.  Is there purpose in our scheduling madness?
            Psalm 46;10  ''He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”''
           Sometimes we get so busy trying to solve the problems of our own little worlds that we forget to turn to the true Solver of all our trials.  God surely must laugh when we run around like chickens with their heads cut off.
         Ask yourself often, 'What is my reason or purpose in doing this?'  Are you bearing spiritual fruit, feeding self pride, or pleasing the crowd?  All of our works should be done in the spirit to please and glorify God.
        'May the love in our hearts be manifested in the fruits of our labors.'

  1. I am sure there are people who are busy just making a living and taking care of raising a family and not all people are busy just to feel the need to be busy. However, I agree that a lot of people need something to do if it is just to be a busy body, and impressing their friends with their activities whether they are productive or not. Be still and know I am GOD, a good point to spend some time on each day. Love you................Dad
