It took me a while to come up with the title for this one. I cahnged it every which way, to make it sound as intriging and inviting as possible. I hope it worked. Do you notice when you're play a video game, you sometimes get a warning on the screen, reminding you that you need to change your batteris? Now, if you are like me, you ingnore it ( oops ). But becasue you ignored that warning, half an hour later your game just shuts off...your remote is dead, your batteries fried. Am I right? Same with a PSP, or a DS. It's the same way with our daily devotions. Sometimes, I leave it in the morning, but than I do the same thing happens the next morning, and the morning after that, and so on. Because I ignored the warning in my heart, soul and mind. I set a routine for myself, costing me my daily quiet time with God. Usually, when I don't do my devotions; my day isn't right, I get down on myself, I lash out at my family and even friends. It comes easily to me and without a warning. My anger isn't in check, and my attitude is downright rotten! At the end of the day, when I'm sitting in my bed, or reading my book, my brain goes, " HUH!" And I sorta realize what happened these last few days, I finally take a look at the ugly truth that I was avoiding, no! The truth that I was ignoring...I ask God to forgive me, and to help remind me of the consequences when I don't read my bible. when I put God on a shelf. But He can't be contained, and He will get you. After I get back into my daily devotions, my days are right as rain, I'm more confident, happy, loving, caring, and my attitude and anger are at bay. I stop putting myself down, and just enjoy the life that God so graciously has given me. Now my question is simple...Are your battries fried?...Or charging daily?...Have a great week as you bask in the glory of our Almighty creator, our Redeemer and Friend.
