Christ-followers are instructed to be vigilant in their prayer and worship.
There seems to be several “cultural bucking” topics here. Christ-followers should have different goals than the lost culture around them.
God is of utmost importance- more than every superficial thing that competes for time and attention.
Our default is to be less concerned with the things of God and more concerned on clothes, style, what others think of us, being in charge- all sorts of trivial matters compared to pleasing God.
My faith needs to be first on the list AND added to everything on my day to day calendar/list.
The overall topic here is spot on for today- busyness should not overtake our relationship with God and the mission to which he has invited us.
Father, save me from being spiritually stunted or sidetracked by busyness. Re-center and re-focus my life.
