I confess!  I’ve been trying to serve two masters in my life.  I’ve been juggling so many responsibilities over the past month that no matter how hard I try to keep up with everything, I still manage to lay my head down at night and feel like a failure because I haven’t completed half of my To-Do List.  I’ve been “doing” the right things lately, but for some reason in all my “doing” it never seems to leave me feeling satisfied or my list never seems to get completed.

As always, in my quiet time, God spoke to my heart in scripture.  “No one can serve two masters.  Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other.”  Matthew 6:24 That is when the light bulb went off in my head!  No wonder I’m not satisfied and I cannot get caught up on anything to save my life.  I’ve been trying to serve God and people at the same time!  What a relief!  I finally realized why I’ve been struggling so much lately.  One thing I know for certain, from past experience, is when I put God 1st in my life, he will make everything flow like a beautiful orchestra.

So I’m starting again today, changing my priorities and committing to serve only one master in my life, which is my Heavenly Father.  What about you?  Are you serving more than one master in your life?  If so, what are you going to do about it?
