Psalm 16:8 "I keep the Lord
always before me; with the Lord at my right, I shall never be shaken."
When you are deciding how to balance your time, don’t
forget that spending time with God is the most important thing you can do! Do
you see this value at work in Jesus’ life? Ministry opportunities and needs
were going through the roof as news about Jesus was rapidly spreading. It would
seem like the crucial time to work overtime to capitalize on the spiritual
hunger and responsiveness of the people. But Jesus “would often slip away to
the wilderness and pray.”
It must have driven the disciples crazy when Jesus would just disappear and they would have to come up with something to do with the crowds. But nothing was going to keep Jesus from His first priority in life—His relationship with His Father.
When you learn from Jesus to put your relationship with God first in your life, you will be amazed at how well the rest of your schedule and responsibilities come together and fall into place. You’ll see His hand guiding your steps.
