Scripture: 1 Peter 4:7<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

The end of all things is near. Therefore be clear minded and self-controlled so that you can pray.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Observation:<\/strong> Don\u2019t just pray haphazardly. Prayer is important so be intentional about it.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Application:<\/strong>I really need to get back in the habit of waking before everyone else and praying, reading and journaling. I have been going to bed later, which means I haven\u2019t been getting up early… Which means that I\u2019ve just been shoving my devotional time into my schedule wherever I could fit it.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This must change. I need to make time and start with the most important thing (this) and go from there. By shoving it in, I haven\u2019t been clear-minded in my prayers because I have been thinking about all the things that need to be done rather than focusing on listening. <\/span><\/p>\n

Prayer:<\/strong> Thank you, Lord for showing me how I can get things back in line: I obviously need to start with getting my prayer time back in line. I will go to bed at a more reasonable hour tonight and I will rise early tomorrow and spend time with you before my mind wanders and I\u2019m just \u201cfitting you in.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Guide me in being intentional with my time so that I can and will get to bed earlier and will hear your call in the morning.<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been feeling \u201coff\u201d and overwhelmed lately. Thank you for showing me what the root of it is. Empower me to make the change.<\/span><\/p>\n
