It's Monday again. The Super Bowl is over. Hopefully, you made it back into work on time this morning.
Do you find yourself struggling to get through the work week. Some people do such a wonderful job planning out their work week: the calls they need to make, analyzing sales figures, scheduling meetings, and placing and receiving orders. Lunch is often regularly planned as well. Where we will eat? Will it be a working lunch or just time with colleagues and friends, or perhaps some alone time? Planning makes us productive.
But what about your spiritual growth; is that planned into your week as well? If we want to grow spiritually, to be productive in faith, it needs to be.
We need to take time to intentionally plan to read scripture, pray, call a friend, follow-up on someone in need, check on a colleague who's having a personal difficulty, pause and meditate on God's creation, see the world around us, and evaluate how it is impacting us positively and negatively.
So, I ask you, did you plan your week well? Did you forget a few things that need to be on your list?
We are people of schedules. It really is OK to schedule time with the Lord.
