Jesus, time, and us.

My inspiration for this blog came from a devotional that I read about a month ago, and it got me thinking, this could be something good to write about. First I want to start by saying I have been on both sides of this concept, so not only did I read about it, I have had first hand experience with it. It is amazing to me what difference it makes in my life.

I don't want anybody to take this personally, it is just a feeling I have. I know life is very busy, and it can be challenging trying to fit in just one more thing in our daily lives. If you think about it though, Jesus always had time for us and He still makes time for us in our daily lives.

Again don't take this personally . I arise very early in the morning, and many a time I would just go downstairs from my bedroom and, just park myself in front of the tv with my hot cup of coffee and watch vh1 music videos and, accomplish not much else in the morning, then I would go to work, and on a chaotic day I would lose control or have a melt down. These two things are not good for my health.

The point I am trying to make is, as busy as Jesus was and is, he would always find time for those who are in need of healing, or encouragement etc. and He always had lots of people wanting Him, needing Him, or worshipping Him. In all cases He would humble Himself and put other people first, even though He is King Of Kings.

In various parts of the bible Jesus tells us to humble ourselves and put other people before ourselves. Everybody is important, but it is important to remember that as important as we feel we are, it is important to put others before us. Put others first, and we should always try to find time to stop no matter how busy we are, and help a brother, sister or, somebody else, and maybe even a stranger if God calls us to do this.

Also if at all possible always find time to spend with Jesus. No matter what time of day. There is 24 hours in a day, and Jesus always finds time for us. I know that when I give Jesus time everyday, it makes a world of difference in my day. I wouldn't have it any other way. So again, if it is possible always find time to spend with Jesus. You won't regret it. Remember there is 24 hours in a day, and it really doesn't matter what time of day you spend with Him. Anytime is exceptable amen.

I want to close this blog with the scripture verse that follows according to the NASB bible.

Mark 10: 46- 52

46 Then they came to Jericho. And as He was leaving Jericho with His disciples and a large crowd, a blind begger named Bartimeaus, the son of Timaeus, was sitting by the road. 47 When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and say, " Jesus son of David, have mercy on me! " 48 Many were sternly telling him to be quiet, but he kept crying out all the more, " Son of David, have mercy on me! " 49 And Jesus stopped and said, " Call him here. " So they called the blind man, saying to him, " Take courage, stand up! He is calling for you. " 50 Throwing aside his cloak, he jumped up and came to Jesus. 51 And answering him, Jesus said, " What do you want me to do for you?" And the blind man said to Him, " Rabboni, I want to regain my sight!" 52 And Jesus said to him, " Go; your faith has made you well." Immediately he regained his sight and began following Him on the road.
