No Time For God - Practical Perspectives

Have you asked God for something and He’s given it to you and now it’s taken you away from Him?

It's sort of like the wife who wanted to have a baby and then when the baby came she no longer had time for her husband. He may not be too happy to hear her when she says she wants to have another baby.

Have you asked God for that promotion at work and now you have to work so many hours you can’t go to church anymore? You can’t spend time with God anymore because you’re so busy working trying to keep everyone around you happy?

Have you asked God to help your ministry grow but now you’re so busy working for Him that you don’t have time to be with Him?

Are you so busy building your new house that you don’t have time to pray anymore or spend with God?

Don’t be surprised if God isn’t too excited about giving you something else.

What we think we will do and what we do are two different things.
