This year is rolling...

Can you believe we're almost done with February? It seems that this year is rolling by at a record pace! It's a great time to think about what is really most important in our lives and make a plan to give more of our most precious commodity: time. Time is the only thing you can give that costs nothing and yet it is priceless at the same time. I know sometimes it's easy to think, "I'm always with my kids!" or "I'm at church all the time!" Just being present doesn't mean your giving your time. Mothers know this all to well. You're at home with the kids all day but you get so busy with laundry, phone calls, cleaning, cooking and running errands you don't have time to read a story, build a tower or play dress up. This isn't "time". We as Christians can give God the same treatment if we're not careful. We're at church, working in the nursery, serving, giving, running around busily for Him but He wants our "time" too. He wants us to gaze up in the sky on a pretty day and say, "thank you". He wants our smiles, songs and thoughts more so then the cupcakes for the bus route or the wipes for the nursery! Spend "time" with your family and spend "time" with Him this week! Think about it...
