I had a hectic week this week.
My routine was different and normally I use my train time to text or catch up on reading. Because of my unusual routine, my reading time was diminished and I realized multiple times that I had simply forgotten to respond to messages that had come in that I meant to respond to.
That got me thinking. Does God ever get too busy and forget to respond to your requests?
I think of the times I ask questions.. and they are often. But then I wake up the next day to read a devotion that seems like it was written by God Himself just to respond to the questions I have for Him.
Has that ever happened to you?
The God of the universe pauses what He’s doing, to simply provide assurance or encouragement to little ole’ me and then I realize the answer to my question – God is never too busy.
No matter how many times I seem to ask the same question, God is still patient with me and still answers the longings in my heart. My friends will send a reminder to me, even though they may not know that I need it in that moment.
I believe that is God taking a moment out of His Heavenly schedule to say ‘I am never too busy for you and I have not forgotten you’.
Dear Lord, thank you that you have never told us that you are too busy. Thank you that you came to abide in us through the Holy Spirit so that we are never alone. Help us to realize that you are only a prayer away, and that line will never give us a busy signal and you will never forget to respond to us because you are having a hectic day.
