I...Lately, I've been feeling overwhelmed also. I've always been busy, but now I'm BUSY, and any hint of my previous contemplative life seems to have gone up in a poof of smoke. I've been grumbling that if I just had more time to pray, it would be alright. If I just had more time to pray... <br /><br />But I'm seeing more clearly each day that I still have the same amount of time to pray that I always have...24 hours a day. There isn't less time. I just have to choose to keep using my time for God instead of burying myself in a mountain of busyness.<br /><br />Praying without ceasing means praying even when the responsibilities of life don't cease. As you say, every moment can be an act of prayer lifted up to the Lord. Every minute that seems filled to bursting with things of the world always has more than enough room left over for God in it, too. We just have to offer it to Him. And like all offerings, they mean more when they hurt a little to give them.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06249747626374270581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25192475.post-66023601919981229872009-11-19T13:23:06.072-08:002009-11-19T13:23:06.072-08:00Wow.
