In Need Of... Time Management

Praise God! He is so good!
My last blog was all about seeking God...
This blog is all about how that's going!!
Jesus said, in Matthew 7:7-8 - Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.
I basically prayed that about my walk with God. I want to grow in Christ! I want to BE LIKE JESUS, and i know i can't do that on my own! It is so amazing to watch how fast God works!!
I hadn't really thought about that until i looked at the date on my last blog... July 19th is not so long ago, but it feels like years :o)
God, thru some great Georgians and a good week of discipleship, convicted me of some things that need to change in my Christian life. He pointed out many of my weaknesses, and some great ways to straighten out my path!
I've started in on a new book... "A Woman's Call To Prayer." So far, it's great. It's holding me accountable to my new commitment to God. I even have a prayer chart, cuz one thing i found was that i wasn't making a CONSCIOUS effort to spend a significant time with God EVERYDAY. So everyday that i meet my commitment, i check off the date box... and when i don't... i can't check off the box... (Empty boxes make for a big conviction... :oS )
I have already noticed a change in my thinking... I rush home from work to spend time with God... I spend time with Him on my lunch breaks... I pray WHILE i'm working... I make a conscious decision to spend time with GOD!
