What are you doing with your time?

Have you ever felt like you needed to be doing more with your time for the Kingdom? We want God to do so much for us but are we investing time doing things for the kingdom and our spiritual growth more than we are with being interested in the things and pleasures of this world? We have to be careful to maintain a healthy balance. Yes we have to do what we do to be productive in everyday life but we should begin with God and end with God and some where in the middle handle our responsibilities in this life. There are many reality shows on tv about the everyday lives of flesh and blood people just like us. We become consumed with viewing how sorted and unscrupulous their lives are and make discussion about it but what about ours? Their's should be a teaching example of what we don't want ours to look like. To each his own but there is a better way. Why are we so interested? Why cant we handle our own affairs and mind our own business? Why are so many pressed to be in competition with someone else to make it look like they are living better and are in possession of more for status purpose or just to say they have it all? When we are content with what we have and who we are we don't have to obsess to have what our neighbor has or work to look like someone other than who we are. We also don't have to press for position and fame to receive the accolades of man to make us feel important or entertaining.
Bottom line is when we seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness all things will be added unto us. We wont have to turn tricks, do flips, lie, beg, borrow, steal and be conformed to an ungodly imagine to get it. I write as things are laid upon my heart and in doing so it doesn't seem to be just about spreading an enlightening message to others it for my growth as well. Thank you God for speaking to me for my growth and being led to share to help others to also grow as you move in their hearts trying to show us all the way as you work with us individually.
I take no credit for this for I am too just a vessel growing in HIS grace and knowledge. Everyone have a blessed day. Be careful and be safe. Pray believing and always trust the Lord even when things maybe seem bleak or you may feel like you are at a standstill in life. Nothing stays the same, a change is coming just hold on. He is not blind or death to your circumstances. Talk to him, tell him all about it and rest in knowing that answers will come. Be patient knowing that his timing is not like ours neither is his ways.
Peace and Love
