Busier

About a week ago, I was visiting with my brother and sister-in-law. We were trying to find a weekend that was available to go up to Dallas and spend with them. I flipped through my date book a while and finally found a date in May that was open... However, I didn't have a pencil handy, so I made a mental note to add it later when I found one. The next day I was at the office and I took a minute to check my emails and remembered a booking that I hadn't yet put on the calendar. The day looked vaguely familiar. Yep. You guessed it. It was the same one that I *thought* was still open. Negative on the still open.

Busy.

No, worse than busy... Yesterday I had the *privilege* to watch the super bowl with my sister's youth group at our church... Do you remember the commercial... haha and I don't even remember what it was for, but at the end, it stated: Awesome + Awesome = Awesomer...? So, yeah. Worse than busy... Busier? I'm digressing... sorry.

Anyways, I was flipping through my Bible a little bit ago and I came across an index card with this quote written across it: "What God is seeking from us is not more activity, but a deeper relationship."

And so please tell me why we continue to add things to our lives?! - Good things, by all means! - Things we believe the Lord would be proud of us for doing! And yet, He is not so much interested how much we are doing for Him if we are not spending as much time with Him.

Let's be His followers first, then a daughter, son, employee, speaker, singer, wife, husband, mother, father...
