Be still, and know that I am God

As some of you may know I have had a concussion over the last week, just to humor you before I get all serious I banged my head on a big 60 inch TV at some speed and yeah... concussion. I have been learning a lot this week before hand my prayer life was dropping I only really prayed when things where going on like youth groups, meetings etc... I never had a persistent prayer life and it is so important that we uphold one to stay in communication with our heavenly father. I also had some struggles reading my bible and most of you will back me up on this one, I just never stop and rest and just be... I never stop and give God time in my busyness I scheduled him round it. This week has been really frustrating for me as I am a person who hates sitting around with a passion I love doing things! I love my job and not being able to work has been really annoying. This week has taught me a lot about my life and my relationship with God, here I was sitting thinking I was close with him but really I was just putting him in here and there. Not in everything I done! I have had so much time to pray and read the bible and I have met with God so many times this week which has just been outstanding and really encouraging. but I am really trying to discipline myself so that when I am back to my self I no longer just fit God around all that I do, but he is everything. I want to be persistently praying again every single day about everything I can possibly think of... I want my eagerness every day to go in to his amazing word and receive from him daily! I lost all of that due to being busy and not allowing God in my busyness. I really encourage anyone who is really busy to just stop and receive from God as he is the one who charges us to do his work, question for you "Is it even his work when we are not relying on him?" don't let busyness of life hold you back in your journey it is so hard to realize or admit it but honestly sit back and reflect on all you do and ask yourself "Where does God fit in to all this?" and if the answer is he doesn't then stop and seek him because he is everything we need, keep him in his rightful place!
