Colossians 2:6 "Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him."
Am I purposeful in prayer and intercession, or am I swept away by my busy life, the loud din of the world, or in my emotions? Do I pray throughout my day, or do I schedule time with God like other appointments in my life? There are so many things that can draw me away from my faith focus on Jesus. The tasks of the day, other people, world events or issues, entertainment, social media, and the list goes on and on. Yet the Bible tells me to pray without ceasing. Is this even possible to do? If God is first and central in my life, it absolutely is. If all I do in life is for Him and because of Him than relationships, work, and even my entertainment is entered into with purpose. If I am in prayerful submission to Jesus throughout my day, I will always be open to the Holy Spirits leading instead of fighting my way along under my own steam. I have both walked daily with Jesus and without Him, and I am hear to testify that with Him is infinitely better and brings peace to a weary soul.
John 10:27 "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me."

It is definitely difficult at times to not let the world distractions derail us. I try to pray all the time now - mixed in with everything I do. They say a habit is created after 28 days so I try to breathe and out with "Jesus be with me."
