Are You Too Busy

---

“Now when Daniel learned that the document had been signed, he went into his house, where the windows of his upper room opened toward Jerusalem, and three times a day he got down on his knees, prayed, and gave thanks to his God, just as he had done before.” Daniel 6:10

Let’s look at Daniel, one of the great rulers of the Persian empire, in charge of the King’s affairs and of the affairs of the entire government.

If anyone is really busy, it’s Daniel! But in spite of all this responsibility, he makes it a point to set himself apart from the world and pray three times a day.

This really struck me. I mean, how busy are we really? And busy doing what?

The conclusion: If we are neglecting to meet personally with our God, then we’re simply doing more than He intended!

Let’s keep our priorities in order and be a people of prayer! Yes, there is so much work to be done, but not at the expense of our most important relationship.

“O God, You are my God. Earnestly I seek You; my soul thirsts for You. My body yearns for You in a dry and weary land without water.” Psalm 63:1
