It is where we learn and apply the gospel of Jesus Christ. God and Christ should reside in our homes and in our heart. Lauren's friend's article was very intriguing. She created time for time. Life gets busy but we can always "create" time for our Father in Heaven.Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02154898676532853614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14642592.post-67376186494861959262014-03-15T19:09:27.046-04:002014-03-15T19:09:27.046-04:00I ponder these issues so frequently!

My oldest will be a senior in high school next year and I find myself wanting to just stop and watch every precious movement of the amazing young man he has become. We have a philosophy of maintaining a peaceful, home Church, but we find ourselves dizzy with busyness so often. We constantly have to recalibrate!

Thank you so much for this reminder, it's a message we all need in such a busy world.<br /><br />Living in New England, it's difficult to find time to slow down, as my friend Mallory attests to in her blog post about deepening her relationship with God through creating quiet moments http://goo.gl/Rs9yyv, but I do my best to pause, put Him first, and love each moment of this life.Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02154898676532853614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14642592.post-43441504707659472232014-03-12T10:45:26.866-04:002014-03-12T10:45:26.866-04:00This makes me think of the acronym for BUSY:
Burie...This makes me think of the acronym for BUSY:<br />Buried<br />Under<br />Satan's<br />Yoke<br /><br />I really think it is one of Satan's most effective ploys. We think it is OK being so busy because we are doing good things ... but it is keeping us from having unhurried time with God. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing! I need to be reminded often.

This post goes right along with what I've been thinking about lately and I felt God prompting me to step down from a ministry I volunteered in. I would have been rushing to get there this morning, but I had a wonderful sleep last night-the best I've had in a long time. And I am enjoying every minute with both of my girls as well as watching them with each other. My college bound girl will be 4 hours away, so not too far, but it will still be very different around here. Thanks for this post. God is using your writing!
