Time wasting

Hello Dairy, 

It's been long, I know, a lot has happened I wish I wrote down.... I haven't been on fire for Christ that much lately to say the truth but that doesn't go without saying that I know He is always with me. 

Today I want to talk about time wasting. I woke up this morning at 3.45am and I picked up my phone which has now become a habit and I began to scroll through social media. I had more important things to do.. And just like that one solid hour went by...

I've wasted much more time than that in the past but this particular hour wasted felt like days wasted. Maybe because these days, time for me has all of a sudden become so precious. 

Yesterday, I was upset and destabilized for hours. Someone hurt my feelings. And when I think of it, it felt like I really lost a lot. 

So right here right now, I want to make conscious efforts not to allow myself waste time. There's so much to achieve and time keeps ticking. I want to invest my time on what really matters the most- Fellowship with God, reading, studying and most of all building up myself.  

It's refreshing being back and I'll like to end today's entry with a little prayer from my heart. 

PRAYER. 
Dear Father, 
there's no one like you. I appreciate you because you are awesome and mighty and nothing is impossible with you. That's so awesome!!! I bless your name. Dear Father I need your help, teach me to use my time wisely, rightly and carefully knowing time is so precious.

Help me put you first, please everyday come into my heart and refresh me. For every disappointment, please encourage me. Instead of hate fill me with love, where my mind is filthy with the ugliness of bitterness fill me with purity of heart. But above all may I continue to please you and find favor in your sight. 

Let me not walk out of my room without your covering favor and grace. Use me to bless others today and strengthen me for today's work. Begin a new work in me  for I pray in the name of your precious Son, Jesus Christ. 

Amen.
