My friends and I decided to embark on a trip to Red River Gorge in Kentucky. We packed up our tent, food, clothes, and hiking gear and excitedly drove to the mountains. As soon as we got there, we picked a flat place to pitch the tent, but decided we’d put it up after we returned from our hike. We were having so much fun sightseeing, repelling, and cliff diving into the water that we didn’t get back to the campsite until about 8:00 p.m. My friend unpacked the tent and we all helped in trying to assemble it. Nothing was coming together as easily as we’d anticipated. We were missing some rods and pegs, so we decided to just campout without the tent. What a beautiful night under the stars… that is until the howling began; and rather too close for comfort I might add! Coyotes??? We unanimously decided to sleep in my friend’s car. Five girls trying to comfortably sleep in an old white Caddy was not exactly what I had in mind that night. Let’s just say we all learned from our experience to thoroughly check our gear beforehand and not procrastinate in pitching the tent.Similarly, I find myself procrastinating in my spiritual life, putting off my prayer time and Bible study until evening. I’m more tired in the evening and find my brain has drifted into autopilot mode. Eyes are working, but brain is not. Some people function better in the evening or others in the wee hours of the morning. What is your peak time? The most vital part of our lives should be our God Time”. When we put God off until later
