Men
Men... Each day we get up early, and go to work. We try to provide for our families as best we can... a heavy burden, to say the least. But, do we make time for worship? Is your day, your walk worshipful to your Maker, your Savior?
My day starts at 5:20am. After hitting snooze on my cell phone at least three times, I jump out of bed in a rush. On a good day I even get a lunch packed. But, this year I'm trying something new. Instead of only praying as I doze off each night, I now take a moment to get on my knees and pray before leavng home. I also pray aloud in my truck while driving the thirty minute commute to work each morning. There's just something about bowing, humbling yourself before God... And praying out loud keeps you focused, really talking with God. I have found that each day is much more worshipful when I carve out a few extra minutes for God. And, somedays when the weather is good I've went walking on my lunch break, and just talked with God, praying for my wife and others in my life. It's amazing how close you feel to God when you put the needs of others first.
And, no... I don't normally have the simplest of work days. My days usually consist of a hectic few hours first thing, followed by catching up on the days work while getting interupted left and right, and ending with a frustrated rush to get out of the office in time to rush home and spend some time with my wife, the best part of my day. Long days... I know! I think some guys have it better than others, but then again do we really know what kind of life the other guy lives. I'm just happy my life is somewhat simple. The Lord is good to me, and I need to make time to recognize my Maker each day. After all, they are His days, not ours!
