I promised you new content each week, and I’m already a day behind! But I have good reasons. You’ll see…

I didn’t spend a lot of time at my computer this week when I wasn’t working.

I logged 50+ hours this week (51). That’s a combination of hours at the office, some projects I chose to work on at home, and a few things I did in a volunteer capacity that are not actual functions of my job.

Fifty-one.

Keep that number in mind when I tell you what else I’ve accomplished.

Dinner with a friend.

Live online meeting with some friends.

Afternoon lunch with a friend.

Watched World Series games 6 and 7.

Went out to dinner with my husband twice (that’s two date nights, y’all!).

Saw a movie with my husband.

Got my teeth cleaned.

Got the oil changed in my car.

Did four loads of laundry in one day.

Finalized a project for another ministry.

I also feel well-rested and ready for the new week!

Why?

Because in addition to all of that, I made time EVERY MORNING for my devotional.

I call it giving God the “first ten.” We give him the first ten percent of our income (tithe). Shouldn’t we also give him the first ten minutes of our day?

This week, try giving God the first ten minutes of your day. Read and study His word.

Then see what He does with the rest of your time.
