time

I think the devil loves the concept of time.
It seems like the number one reason that I don't stop and rest in my creators presence. I don't have time, I can't do that right now I need to get some work done. That is a daily excuse I use. Its the daily barrier I place between my friend and me. Its the thing that I allow to keep me separated from him.
It's kinda crazy though to think that I would allow time constraints to keep me from the one who created the concept of time. If he wants me to spend it with him he will make it not a problem. He won't make time a problem for me, he is the only one with the power to do that. So when I start to think about my time I need to again think about the one who created it.
and another thing, are we not supposed to give our first fruits to God. That isn't just money, that everything including time. Its supposed to be a sacrifice, and God promises that when you give he will multiply by tenfold. So give when i give my time I am promised that he will give me what I need. So relax and give to him. mind body and soul. and time.

things change.

its inevitable, time is going to pass and things are going to change, evolve, become something new.
Sometimes its awesome and you leap head first into a pool of the unknown excited to experience whats ahead,
but sometimes its not.
sometimes you have to be dragged kicking and screaming.
sometimes it means you lose thing, people.
sometimes you're bitter about the change, that lose.
sometimes you ignore it hoping it will go back to how it was.
but the fact is it has changed.
so you can look back at what was, refusing to face what is
or
you can dive in.
leaving the past in the past and living for the now.
you can evolve with the things around you.

Change is change.
its inevitable.
its hard.
its exciting.
