Busy, Busy, Busy

I’ve recently been a busy bee.  We’re getting ready to move from our luxurious 750 Square foot palacial estate to a much larger plantation type home.  Of course, the plantation is not necessarily true, but it is larger than we thought we could afford, but by the grace and blessing of God, we’ve been able to go forward with the purchase.  Now, what I’ve realized is that buying a house takes a LOT of time.  I’m busy, yes, but when you add in the house walkthroughs, the meetings, the other things, the business just adds up.  

The good thing, besides the rockin house, is that I’ve been able to realize exactly how much time I waste on an average day.  I try to be responsible, yet sometimes, we waste time doing the piddly things.  Now, this has gotten me to thinking about my life.   It seems that the one thing that Satan likes to do more than anything is to get me to waste my time.  If he can get me to waste my time then I won’t be effective.  I’ll get down on myself.  I’ll become distracted from my real purpose.  I’ll become rushed trying to make up for lost time.  I don’t want that.  I want to be busy, but not because I have to be, but because I want to be.  

Just some thoughts…
