Daily Bread for Thursday: Give God His Time

Luke 18:1 And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;


2 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:
3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.
4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;
5 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.
6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.
7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?
8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?

How much further along would you be with God if you spent as much time on social networks as you did praying, listening, and talking with him. None of the social networks out there are worth making God jealous.

Take some time away from Twitter and Facebook, and spend quality time with God. Using those networks to inspire others are great, but you have to know the God that you're talking about. Don't just use him as a just-in-case emergency kit, he is your source, he is your strength. Talk to God today...
