Wisdom Proverbs 20: Glorifying God with our schedule

A sluggard does not plow in season;

so at harvest time he looks but finds nothing.

Do not love sleep or you will grow poor;

stay awake and you will have food to spare.

Make plans by seeking advice;

if you wage war, obtain guidance.

A man's steps are directed by the Lord.

How then can anyone understand his own way? (Proverbs 20:4, 13, 18, 24 NIV84)

I have been lacking discipline in how I prioritize and use my time especially recently. Even harder is that you call me to work and follow you in the way you guide not the easy way or my way. For if I sow seed in the wrong season my labor is in vain and harmful even. Jesus I pray that I remember you have a plan for me and that you guide my steps that I may bring you glory. God I pray you would put your desires and plans first on my heart. Not sleep or entertainment or even success in ministry. Lord I ask for your heart and discipline and I want to be diligent and faithful with the calling an time you give me.

Amen
