Hey there...hoping you're off to a wonderful morning. Got insight this morning around importance of "staying on track". I recently started tracking my time. In doing so, I see that there is a finite amount of it and what I do with it is crucial: determines the course of life.
By keeping a daily agenda (mapping out what I am to do on a weekly bases by plugging into my phone calendar activites that are non-negotiable: spiritual activity, self care, relationship building time, fun, work, etc), I can get the most out of the time blessing I have been given; vs falling into the blinded abyss of oblivion...which I liken to a scene in the movie, "Percy Jackson and the Lightening Theif".
In this movie, there's a scene where an adventurous trio enter a casino-like place and they eat the "lotus flower cookie" and get stuck in a dreamlike state, allowing time to be robbed from them thru lack of awareness. Well, keeping track of time helps me to stay in place of awareness and maximize the time God has given me...in the present is also where I connect to the wisdom and guidance of God.
In short, insight this morning was to stay on track with tracking time...this is healthy practice; and to not allow distractions in life (anything, anyone { including myself via emotional distraction} who deters from the plan that God and I have laid out for the day) to deter progress. There will be times to pause, to be flexible...remembering to ask God's wisdom in how to proceed...when and how long to pause; then, I ask God's help in hopping back on the planned path for the day without condemnation....everything is purposeful...even pauses or changes as God directs...
