Sorry it’s been so long since my last post. That’s one of my typical ADD traits. Start strong, then don’t fallow through. I recognize, though, that a trait isn’t  an excuse.  So I feel that, at least for me, this and the following post are timely.

As an ADDer, you might feel that your life is chaotic, as all the shiny objects in the world (and there’s a lot of them) vie for your attention. Typically, the organization experts will try to help structure your life by telling you to write down your priorities, make lists, get organized, and develop a complex filing system.

At least for me, that doesn’t work. And how is this a devotional? I often feel that my life is in chaos. Especially at times when I’m looking for that one important piece of paper: the one I saw yesterday. The one I made a mental note to put away. The one that’s now dropped off the face of the earth. During times like that, it’s important to stop, get centered on Christ, and remember that our first priority is to serve Him. Then let Him fill your mind and heart with peace. Then, maybe it won’t be so hard to navigate through the clutter in your life.

Matthew 22:37-39

Jesus replied: ” ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment.  And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ (NIV)
