Hard to imagine that all the things we\/I do have kept me busy this many days. And it seems like the days just keep rolling on and on, one day into the next. Amazes me that I think I am doing the things that I also did while working. Now how did all these\/those things get done.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, I watched &#8220;Idol&#8221;, &#8220;Gray&#8217;s Anatomy&#8221; and &#8220;House&#8221; last year; read emails and e-newsletters; spent time at soccer, hockey and basketball games. Guess the old adage &#8220;the work available fills the time available.&#8221; Not hundred percent sure, but that seems to be what happens so often.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s why we set priorities, and what we put first may or may not help us have (or seem to have) more time.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s like yesterday &#8211; rather than start with by Bible reading, I started on emails and before I knew it, an hour and a half had zipped by. This morning though was different.<\/p>\n<p>James 4 has some highlights, but the ones that stood out for me were &#8220;Where do quarrels and conflicts come from?&#8221; and &#8220;You don&#8217;t have because you don&#8217;t ask&#8221; or &#8220;You ask, but for the wrong reasons.&#8221; There were some other things, but those three hit first, and were seed for thought. Better they be seed (impetus) for action, cause it&#8217;s not what you know, but what you do with it.<\/p>\n<p>There is more in James 4, but more about that later&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you noticed that there are only eight months left in 2008?
