Speak to the Master of the Universe or Play Video Games?

Recently the Lord has dealt with me deeply. He has shown me how to trust in Him because He can do whatever He wants- obviously within the confines of His own Word.

This realization has led me to rethink how I believe in what He tells me, and to understand that all that His Word says is true: "Everything is possible to the one who believes." (Mark 9:23)

With this empowering apocalypse, I have begun the complete reprogramming of my heart, mind and soul by means of Holy Spirit; my Counselor and Comforter. I seek to daily be with my Redeemer and spend time intimately with my Savior and Friend.

And yet... I still find that I let the world distract me. Both Thursday and Friday of this week I let myself slack and not pray or read God's Word.

I know! I even asked myself, "After such deep understanding, how can I still do this when God is so gracious to me?" But, I know God is not angry with me. Rather, He is sad for me because I'm the only one who misses out...

I spent Thursday and Friday not mulling over or lamenting avoiding spending time seeking to know and understand my Creator. But instead thinking that, "I'll get to it this evening." Knowing full well that that was almost a given, "Ain't gonna happen...."

So, Friday, I did read a psalm and pray just a bit. But, if I'm honest, it was a lot more filler than intimacy with God... And to be clear, that's not what God desires from us!

However, I woke up this morning (Saturday) and Holy Spirit spoke to me. As I lay barely awake in bed thinking about how I hadn't really prayed or anything, Holy Spirit made me realize, "I'd rather spend time playing video games than conversing with the Master of the Universe."

I was dumbfounded at this realization...

So, my question for you is, "What's keeping you from speaking One on one with the Master of the Universe?"
