Things I have learned Day #11

#11. I need time with God to not be grumpy

I just realize more every time I don't spend time with God how much more grumpy I am. I am just less patient with everyone, more negative in my thinking/speech and just overall less happy... my outlook on life is different. In fact I need to go read a little right now. I have been kind of crabby to my kids all day... and they weren't even really any more naughty than normal today.

I just continue to learn how important time with God is... I know I have heard that for 25 years of my life but really... people need time with God... even if it is only a few minutes. Time with God is kind of like oiling an old wheel. Consistent oiling is the best but even just a tad bit of oil will keep the wheel moving (and not squeaking). Not oiling just leads to disaster in the long run (and in some cases the short run as well).
