As followers of Christ we are to pray every day, read the bible every day, and follow God's Law!
This may seem easy, but it's far from it! God created us for a purpose and it's up to us to find out what that purpose is!
I am a woman of God. A follower of Christ. I try and spend as much time with God as I possibly can. Though I've noticed I've been slipping a little.
I am a busy mom, those of you who have children know what I'm talking about. I try to pray but often get interrupted by my kids asking for stuff. I'm busy feeding, playing, then tackling the house work. When I do have time to pray it's early morning or late evening, when the kids are still sleeping and when they are in bed for the night. But by those times I'm so tired all I want to do is sleep. That makes me feel like I'm ignoring God's call for me.
I read my bible verses and pray for God to help me with my struggle each day. I know that he will help me in his time, not mine. The road to get there is just a tad bumpy.
We need patients, strength, courage, and obedience. All of which come from God.


Mark 11:24
Listen to me! You can pray for anything, and if you believe, you will have it!


If all we have to do is pray and believe to receive what ask for, as Jesus said, then what are we waiting for?! Easier said then done right? Wrong! We just make up excuses because, again, we are lazy!
You wanna know what God told me about my struggles I've been having? He said "Stop being lazy!" Boy did that wake me up. Now I feel as if I need to share this with others. We are, as humans lazy at times. We blame fear for not doing things, when in all honesty we are just lazy. There is not such thing as "I can't find time for God."
We must give God the time he gives us everyday! A little tip: Write down your helpful verses in a booklet (small as your hand) and keep it with you at all times. This way when your feeling "Lazy" or frustrated or whatever struggle you come along, you can look up your verses. You can be reminded of the things God promises!
So stop putting God off, he's never done it to you! Go, listen! He's waiting!

Joshua 3:9
So Joshua told the Israelites, "Come and listen to what the Lord your God says.
