When will it be MY time?
Distractions are real! I don't know about you, but I have seriously had a hard time staying focused. If I start one project, before I know it, a new thought crossed my mind and boom, I begin to strategize that new idea. And don't even get me started on social media! I typically allow myself time on social media during my day or in the evenings after work and before you know it, two or three hours have passed by. Absolutely nothing had been accomplished and I had absolutely nothing to show for the time that has passed.
This past week was extremely hard. I had nothing but time because I was confined to my bedroom because I had Covid. I had my tablet and my phone with me. I would get a boost of energy and try to clean and sanitize my room, only to be totally drained and winded, so I could not do much but lay around or sit in my bedroom chair. I can't tell you the amount of time I spent scrolling. I'd go from Facebook, to Instagram, to TikTok and they cycle would continue for hours. It was disgusting and disturbing. During the day I would have to intentionally put my device down and pull out my Bible because I felt convicted. Once I checked that off my list, back to scrolling I went. At one point, God said to me, when will it be MY time? In that moment, everything was on the back burner. I knew it was time to spend some quality time with my Father.

Lord, give me you, Lord, give me you, Lord, give me you, Lord, give me you" 🎶

I realize me putting "things" above my time with God were becoming an idol and that is definitely not my heart. It amazes me how much our fleshly desires can overtake our spiritual desires.
Sis if you have been like me, it's not too late to change how you utilize your time. I implore you to be intentional about what you're doing and how you spend your time. I don't believe it's called TikTok by happenstance. It can be a major distraction if you allow it! It is imperative that we are intentional about everything we do. If we allow the enemy just a crack, that's enough to slither in and disrupt our lives.
God is asking sis, When will it be MY time? Will you make time for Him?
