There is No Such Thing!

When it comes to daily life, there is no such thing as boredom or wasting time. There is always something grabbing at our attention and begging for our time. We all have busy lives with places to go and people to see. There are a lot of important things that we need to accomplish and get done in our day. There is one particular area of our lives that I want to bring up. What about the circumstances in life that slow us down? Those annoying times when we feel as if we are wasting time or we are bored? What are we to do with these times? Do we just let them waste away and let the frustration build?  Do we miss out on an opportunity?

When I mention that there is 'no such thing as boredom or wasting time', I am making reference to what we can do with these small moments in time. I have learned to make the most of these small moments by being creative. A few examples are as follows; say small prayers, keeping a small book in your vehicle, download some books on your electronic device, carry a small notepad, keep a small Bible in your office or car, and one that I have grown to like is to 'just be silent' and take in nature or your current surroundings. We feel anxious when we have to be still or wait on something. We become bored so easily! My challenge today is for all of us to look at it as if there is no such thing as boredom or wasting time. Take those awkward times and make them useful for yourself. Make them into 'sacred' moments that will enrich you and get you through the day.
