We are so busy with our lives, working, cooking, cleaning, running errands, just being wrapped up in " our own little world" that we can't see the PRIORITY of fellowship. I know this, because I do all the thing above and then hubby invites someone over and all of a sudden my "work load" has tripled and I have to get the house cleaned and supper cooked on time, etc, etc. But then once they are here and we are laughing and talking and eating dessert, I'm like..."Why don't we do this more oftern."

The PASTOR'S WIFE'S point of view......

Yes, we are all too stinking busy to make GODLY fellowship a PRIORITY!!!!! I know because I'm a wife, mother, pastor's wife, I hold a full time job, I babysit, I cook, clean.........you get the message.....But yes, we are way too busy. So busy in fact that it is rare that we can even "slow down" enough to stop and see a HUNGRY or HURTING soul that the Lord allowed to cross our paths. I can say these things, because I'm just as guilty if not more than the rest of us.

We need to realize that we are not an island and we can NOT survive by ourselves. If you don't make it a priority NOW, when your children are grown and you have retired, you'll be an awful miserable person.

THE ANSWER IS YES WE ARE TOO BUSY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
