I spent most of today with an agenda, but not following it. I was staying one step ahead of falling behind it. I had thank-yous to write. I had messages to return. I had appointments to make. I had a to-do list that wasn’t getting ta-done.
You know that ball in the Indiana Jones movies that threatens to flatten Indy as he’s running frantically, jumping over traps and pits? I felt THIS close to becoming “one” with my agenda.
So, the most obvious choice was to avoid it all together and succumb to the wandering mind. So, after rating celebrity fashions as “glam” or “sham” and figuring out what the youtube battle of M&M Cru vs. AC/DC was about. I found a blog that was more…well, beneficial. Lifeway’s All Access.
In today’s posting, she was reflecting on 2 Samuel and King David. She writes…”Lately, I’ve been struggling with the realization that sometimes I am too concerned about the approval of man…David’s words reminded me that all I have to be is who God made me to be. I need to seek Him with all my heart. I need to celebrate before the Lord and not be so concerned about what people think of me. I need to become “even more undignified than this” before my God. Because no one is ever going to love me more than He does. No one will ever do for me what He has already done for me.”
There’s a call to re-focus if I’ve ever heard one. Oh, Miley and your ultra cool dance throw-down…you must wait for another day.
