Busyness is the devil’s
distraction
keeping you running
and never in prayer
he wants you frantic
hurried and willful
forgetting that love
is the reason you’re here
no room for God
want fills your hours
chasing the world
running on fear
his biggest lie
that God is a liar
you can do this alone
he makes you believe
but God wants your love
not your ambition
turn away from the world
toward the kingdom of peace
~Robert Van Valkenburgh
Reflection:
Where in your life has busyness replaced prayer, and how might you create space to return to God’s peace?
Scripture:
“Be still, and know that I am God.” — Psalm 46:10
