I feel like school and home are impeding this so much. I feel like I could be doing such a better job and that my devotions suck lately (I’m so worried in the mornings that I’ll miss the bus that I can’t sit still for 2 minutes let alone 15 or more to do my devotions. I keep forgetting to do them when I get home from school too) and my prayer life has been nearly nonexistent. I try to remember to say grace before I eat and to pray before bed but I’m so tired that I just kind of say “Thank You for this day, thank You for all You’ve given me, please keep my loved ones safe, help me to live for You, and forgive my sins.” That, to me, is a pretty insufficent prayer.
I need to reconnect to life outside of school and atheists (aka my family) but I can’t seem to on a daily basis. It’s the weekend now and I intend to spend time with God, alone, but I don’t know if I’ll get distracted or be able to get away outside somewhere (it’s so much easier for me to get close to God out in His Creation). I’ve got to find a way…
