Matthew 13:22 (NKJV) 22 Now he who received seed among the thorns is he who hears the word, and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.
Life can be busy. Sometimes it can be too busy!
There are so many things that can pull on us and vie for our time and attention. It’s up to us to defend our time and keep out those things that aren’t good for our walk with God.
For some reason, when we begin to take on extra tasks or when things sneak in that use up our time, our relationship with God is always the first thing that suffers.
Many times, we can spend our “extra” time working or coming up with ways to make more money. Or maybe we get involved in other kinds of activities that pull on us for more and more of our time.
These are called “the cares of the world” And these are the things that come and suck the life out of our walk with God, causing us to wither and die, if we’re not careful.
But it doesn’t have to be this way!
We just need to keep alert and guard our time so we don’t become like the seed that fell among the thorns.
