21 Day Challenge- Day Six

I can't believe it it is already Day 6 of our 21 Day Challenge! We've almost hit the 1 week point!
Here is our thought for today:

Martin Luther, the theologian whose efforts in the 1500's opened up the use of the Bible to all people, once said, "I am so busy now that if I did not spend two or three hours each day in prayer, I could not get through the day." The more pressure he was under, the more he needed to have alone with God. This is true for any Christian.

Many people, written about in the Bible, set aside a time to meet with God. Jesus Himself was the best example:

**Read Mark 1:35 in your Bible**

It is said that the pace for your whole day is set during the first 15 minutes. Even if you prefer to read your Bible at night, it is still important to spend at least a few minutes with God each morning. He wants to guide you throughout the day, so let Him help you start it and plan it. Each morning, the time should be taken to give your day to God, to open yourself up to be used by Him any way He desires.

If you are too busy to spend time with God, then maybe you are busier than He intends for you to be. God gives us 24 hours in a day..... can't we give Him just a few minutes of our time?

Think about the way you spend your time throughout a normal day. Isn't there some extra time that you normally just throw away with useless things that you could devote to your Savior? I bet we all come find some time!

As you spend time in prayer, praise and listening today, ask God to show you a better way to manage your time so that you can spend more time with Him.

Have A Blessed Day!
