Today, I’m participating in this week’s Five Minute Friday writing challenge. If you like to write or need some inspiration and encouragement be sure to check it out.
Today word prompt: Rush
Start
Lord, I confess to You
So much of the time I feel rushed
I rush from morning to night
I rush to take care of the urgent
How much of what man considers urgent is truly important?
How much of it has eternal consequences?
When I read about Jesus, He didn’t rush
Though He had people coming to Him night and day
Desperate with crippling sickness and disease
A pressing needs that only the Savior could meet
Yet Jesus, the Son of God
Took time to pray to His Father in heaven
Jesus was driven to do His Father’s will, not man’s
He responded with grace, mercy and compassion
May I rush to spend time with Christ Jesus
May I focus my mind on Your life changing Word
May I rush before the Father’s throne of grace
May I bring Him my prayers and wait upon the Lord
Help me to make a priority
That which is important to You
May I rush to come before the Lord
May I be quick to listen and obey

End…Times Up
I’m so looking forward to fall. While I’m not in school, I will be back in Bible study classes. I desperately need the disciple and focus of in-depth Bible study. More than I know, I the community of believers.
How about you? Are you in a good Bible study? If not…now is a good time to jump in. A lot of studies begin in early September. There a are a number of in-depth, verse by verse studies available, like Community Bible Study, Bible Study Fellowship, Precepts or perhaps a study at a local church near you.
I cannot adequately explain how important it is for you know God’s Word for yourself. God will use it to grow you and change you. He will enable you to be discerning and wise and read, understand and obey His Word.
