So, today I was waiting at a red light and I was turning right. There was a lot of people coming so I couldn't turn. The person behind me blew there horn and I looked in my mirror and they were throwing up their hands in frustration. I hate when people do this. It's bugs me. Which made me think.
People are such in a hurry in our world. Everyone is in a rush to get somewhere, do something whatever. We usually never take the time to slow down and get alone with the Lord and our thoughts. I believe however that this is a necessity that we MUST take time to do. Most people don't and when they do they feel so guilty for "taking time for themselves" that they rarely do it. Plus when they are relaxing they're not really relaxing. They're thinking of their "to do list", what am I gonna cook for dinner?, I have to take the kids to practice later, etc.
It saddens me really. People are so stressed out nowadays. Dads and/or Moms work constantly to "provide for the family" when in reality the only thing the family needs is time with their mom/dad and/or spouse. Seriously, it's sad.
Even Jesus himself took time out to be by himself. If Jesus, the creator of the universe can so can we!
Just something to think about.
