Day 6
I don't know if it's just me who struggles with this.... but I really get distracted around my house. 🤦♀️
For example, I wake up early in the morning wanting to pack my closet with a target to finish by midday, in time for school run. We start off well, by tearing everything down, cleaning the shelves, dusting everything down. The music is playing, Im motivated! A few minutes later, I take out some trash then on my way I see the house plants need attention. Afterwards , the trash can needs to be cleaned down, then storage needs to be organised, then, then, then….
An hour later, I remember, Oh I’m actually packing clothes and head back to my main task. Bestie then calls and we start talking about the same story for the 11th time..., next I’m hungry, next its time for school run!
I am learning more that distractions are not always bad things, they can be good, generous, necessary, beautiful acts BUT still they do not align with our purpose/plan. They affect our focus, take away from the attention our task or purpose needs.
The main thing is to keep the main thing, the main thing!
FOCUS and PRIORITISING is key.
Most times we know what we are supposed to do, but we end up involved in so much things that were not part of the plan...of course the plants are watered, the washer is cleaned, but was it the part of the day’s priorities.
My greatest fear is getting to heaven and God saying “Well, yah, but that’s not what I asked you to do!” 😭
Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made to host Jesus, while Mary sat at the Lord's feet listening to what he had to say, which was the important thing to do!
I choose to let His Word lead the way, and get rid of “good” distractions!
Song of the day SHOKO RENYU
