Yes, we all have observed children who are bored and want us to entertain them.But how many of us behave like those children as well?I like to have my days planned out and feel happy when I can see people I love.Sometimes, though, my plans fall through and I am left with a gap of time.Many of us just rush to the next task, perhaps missing out on the break that we have been given.What if when there was a gap in our schedule, we stopped and committed that time to the Lord, and asked Him what to do with it?Hmm, maybe call a friend who is hurting, write a notecard of encouragement, schedule time with someone who is lonely .on and on.
It seems that people are distant from each other nowadays.People say they care, but don’t actually take time out of their schedules to care in person.I love posting and reading messages on Facebook, but I wonder how many people would rather have a real live friend with them at that moment in time And I wonder about how easily we might say, «I’m praying for you,» and yet never take the time to actually pray in person!
When some people recently laid hands on me and prayed for my healing, I felt so encouraged, because I heard their faith in their prayers.That personal interaction is super important.
Next time you tell someone you will pray for them, call them up or go over to them, and pray out loud in faith, so they can hear your prayer as well.
Perhaps boredom is caused by time without focus.As we focus on Him, and refocus our minds, our time will be much better spent on things that matter for eternity.
