Hey all,
The next "Be" in our countdown is to "Be Available".
Do you make yourself available to God?
No, really,......do you make yourself available for Him?
If we are truthful with ourselves, then the answer is probably........no. At least not very often anyway. Let's face it, most days. we get busy in our lives and we ending up giving God our leftover time if we have any. We just don't seem to have time to show up and make ourselves available to Him on a regular basis. Instead, we try and fit Him in. It's not because we don't want to include Him, but we just can't seem to find the the time.
And so goes life.
But check this out.
How can we be available for virtually everything else in our life but not for God? We are available for work everyday. We are available for our kids everyday. We are available for our social commitments everyday. We are available for our friends and family everyday. We are available for our online friends on Facebook and Instagram. Our status is always "available". But yet, we cannot seem to make ourselves available to the Lord of Lords and the King of Kings at least somewhere in our day or week?
Man....that seems off doesn't it?
We cannot experience the life we want here on earth if we don't make ourselves available to the things mentioned above. Those parts of our life are important and they are not the problem. We have to be available for them. What would life be if we didn't make ourself available to experience and engage in those things in our life? It would be a lonely and lifeless journey to say the least wouldn't it?
But here is the thing.....we are missing the most important aspect of our life when we don't make the effort to make ourself available to Him as well. HE created the life we are experiencing and is there for us to make it the life HE designed and wrote for us. When we don't show up for Him, we are leaving out the most important part. We have to remember that HE literally died to be part of our life.
But we have to make ourself available to Him. HE will not chase us down. We must go to Him. We must make give Him some of our time. We must go online in our spirit and mark ourself "available".
And HE will always be there. HE is never offline. HIS status is always "available"........
Waiting on us to show up.
