Enough Time

I have enough time to do what the Lord has called me to do.

You have enough time to do what the Lord has called you to do.

So why am I posting so very late in the day? Because I allowed distractions to become my priority. Sigh.

It’s an ongoing battle for sure! Sometimes the distractions are not my choice – the electricity is out, I become ill or injured.

Most of the time, I choose the distractions. My choices keep me from doing what God has called me to do.

Ugh. That one hits hard.

I usually write my blog on the Thursday morning it posts. I’ve tried writing earlier and sometimes I keep a draft but it has never been what I post that day.

Today I made some choices. I made an appointment at a car dealer. I could have made it any other time. But I chose to do it today.

I chose to scroll mindlessly this morning. There was no posting for the business (http://goGoddesigns.myshopify.com) or commenting on someone else’s post. Just looking at the prettiness that is social media.

Then I needed to rush to take a shower and eat and drive across town. My choices.

I’m going to keep track of my chosen distractions for a day. I think the number will shock me. Hopefully, it will shock me back to doing what God has called me to do.

What about you? Do you allow things to distract you? What kind of things?
