“I gain understanding from Your precepts; therefore I hate every false way. Your word is a lamp for my feet and a light on my path.”

—Psalm 119:104–105

I’m very busy taking piano lessons, teaching piano lessons, taking harp lessons, being at church every Sunday and Wednesday, doing my job, babysitting, being active in Bible quiz, doing school work, teaching three-year-olds in Sunday school, and I can never clean my bunny’s cage too much! There is nothing wrong or sinful about these things, but I still need my quiet time with God. I have to manage my activities and make sure to make time for God above all the other things I do. I don’t have it all figured out, and I don’t always make time to read and study God’s Word. It is important, and I need to make my personal time with God a priority. I can’t just do everything else and then hope that there is time left in the end to spend with God, or just hope to squeeze it in sometime during the day. I must deliberately set aside the time I am going to spend with God. Then I must use that time that I have set aside wisely, focused on God, and without distraction. This is important because it will have eternal value. Not only will it bless you, now and in eternity, to spend time in God’s Word, but it will also bless others. They will see the ways God is working in your life as you are being sanctified. They will see changes in the way you act and treat those around you. It will hopefully inspire them to spend time in God’s Word too.
