At Issue - Busyness

Luke 5:15–16

Jesus knew the pressure of a packed schedule. Crowds of people clamored for his attention. The Pharisees continually attacked him. Teaching his followers required a huge investment of his time. Yet he never let his schedule rule over him. He knew the mission God had given him, and he didn’t allow others’ demands dictate how he spent his time. He was never too busy to focus on what was most important—including time alone with his Father. If you’re too busy to spend time with God, then perhaps you’re too busy.
