Got Time?

My son's passion is to design his own car. He loves cars since he was a little boy. He had made a movie showcasing a car he particularly designed and worked on for a few days. Beaming with pride and relief he had finished it, he asked me this morning, "Mom, do you have time to look at the car I did?" He knew we have little time in the morning when he has school. I replied, "for you, yes, my son, I will always try to find time. I will drop anything I'm doing."

Immediately, I have this sort of like "conviction" from the Lord and I felt I needed to share it with my son immediately. I asked him back, "son, can you imagine us asking our "Daddy" [the Lord] if He has time for us? What do You think would He say?" Without blinking and without much thought, my son goes, " I think He'll say.....I have eternity..."

Then, I asked him again, "well, what would our answers be if the Lord asked us, "Child, do you have time for Me?"...We both got quieter...But I knew in that silence, we were thinking the same thing...We must learn to set our priorities and not forget to spend time with the Lord.

Thank You Lord, for reminding us in quiet ways, how important it is for us, to start the day spending time with You. Lord, please forgive us that we get caught up with the hustle and bustle of daily lives and we forget to make time to talk with You. Help us set our priorities daily, Oh Lord, starting each day in seeking You and Your heavenly wisdom. Thank You for Your presence in our lives and we know Your time doesn't end here in this lifetime, but it surely lasts for eternity. What more can we ask for oh Lord if we have Your love and presence with us?Thank You for Your love, Father.

Matthew 6:32-34 -"For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
