Where do you invest your time?

This morning as I was reading Jeremiah 18:1-12 Where God told Jeremiah to go down to the Potter's house and watch as the man molded the clay into a pot and then change it until he liked what he was creating; like God does to perfect us...I was reminded of a conversation I had with my mentor; she told me that she is so busy she has to pick and choose who to help because she just doesn't have enough hours in the day to invest in those who are not ready or not willing to do the work required to be successful.  She does spend hours everyday helping people and inspiring those who want to work for their dreams.  I sometimes wonder if that's what God thinks when we keep trying to do it our way and will not surrender to HIM.  I know His plan is so much better than ours but we still resist.  He watches over us just as we watch over our own children. I know when I watch my children make mistakes and I know from experience that there is a better way for them but I cannot always tell them or get them to see it because they don't have the life experience to understand what can happen; this is one of the hardest things to witness.  I think our Heavenly Father might feel the same way when we resist HIM.  I find the more time I spend with HIM in HIS word the closer I feel to Him and the more he reveals to me.  It feels like the more time I spend seeking HIM the more he invites me in and the more HE invests in me.  Where do you invest your time?  Who do you invest in?  Are you spending time with people who aren't good for you?  Are you spending time with people who drain you?  Today I would like to challenge you to get in HIS word and see what HE reveals to you and where HE leads you! He LOVES you and wants what's best for you.  HE CAN HEAL what's wrong and turn it around.  REACH out and SURRENDER!
God Bless,
