The Perfect Timing: The best time to talk to God is when you are in your best shape.




Before you read on, Ask yourself, When are you on your best shape? The best time of the day for me is when I woke up and the two hours before I go to bed. My mind is relaxed during those hours and ideas pour out like waterfall every time I think during those periods(Right now, I just woke up and started writing this blog :P). Look at the picture I shared. This is monster hunter and the owner just killed a Lagiacrus for the first time and his player sat on a sweet spot after his victory. Perfect timing to take a snapshot of the game. You see the time you invest to yourself it's either pleasure, its either playing games, watching movie, checking the internet, social media, etc. That's one of the best times and best shape we are. We enjoy consuming worldly stuff. For your time with God, is your timing perfect? is the time you have given him, is it during the time that you are in best shape? 

Schedule you gave to God is not while your in best shape

You know why when you are forced to get up on a Sunday to go to church is not the best time for you to feed your soul with Gods wisdom? The word "FORCED" is the key. That's not the time you are in best shape. The time you are in best shape is when you are willing to learn and your body is ready to be pumped up with knowledge. This topic is subjective though. I know lot's of you guys will give excuses like, But this is the only free time I have, and I have allocated already time for him. God would appreciate that. Hey hey, YOU ARE FORGETTING something. God see's your heart my friend. If you go to church just because you need to like how you go to work because you need to get paid? That's the wrongest idea about growing your spiritual self man. You are missing the opportunities that God might have in store for you because you are not in the best shape. That your mind is troubled and you are forcing to hear God's words and wanting the church time to finish because you need to do something else. It's the same thing as if you've allocated a time for him everyday like after work and during your quiet time with God you wanted it to finish so bad so you can do other stuff. If that's you then you are wasting your precious time. 

Timing is the key

So the time I have for social media is the time for God? The time I have for my dogs is the time for God? The time when I relax is the time for God? Well you have a lot of YOU time. We all have that "ME" time. When you browse social media you enjoy it. Me myself as a gamer, I allocated 2-4 hours a day in video games. I finish my personal task quickly just so I can go to bed and play video games. But then there's this random time that I wanted to hear a sermon of pastor Steven Furtick about Confidence, I was so hooked with the recorded video in youtube then my mind told me that it's time to play but my mind is still hooked to that video and I was like. Okay I still have lot's of things to do in that game and I ended up playing instead. You see? I am hooked already with the world of God then suddenly I switched task to what I love to do. But during that time watching the video, I'm pumped and I know that I need to absorb that sermon. So I understand now that during my play time. My mind is so pumped that it can absorb so much information. During my play time I'm in the best shape. :) That's hours before I go to bed. The next is when I wake up in the morning. I realized that it takes 1 hour for me to get up and that 1 whole hour, I devote to social media. News from my country, my friends, and hey don't get me wrong, I see motivational quotes there while browsing but.. You see.. When I allocate lets say 30 mins to God maybe there's a bigger difference in my life. In what I need to do today or level up my spirit. 

Discipline yourself

In video games, Playstation gives you trophies for doing certain task in game. RPG's give you more skills and abilities in game while you level up. But during this moments we grind even to get those abilities or those trophies. I know it's not a waste of precious time. It's a gamer thing when you accomplish something. There's a sense of contentment and happiness in your heart and it's fulfilling. Its a unique feeling that only a gamer would understand. Now let's go back to leveling up our spirit. We need to grind that as well. If we have built this fulfilling task of leveling up our characters we also need to have the time for God and level up our spirit. The most difficult part is, Giving God the time when you are in your free time and the same time while your in your best shape. It takes  discipline to give up this time. Myself is struggling as well in this part. But when I do overcome myself. This blog is the product of that me wanting to do stuff that would glorify God. This is my free time and I am currently in the best shape to write this. I'm pumped to share stuff to you guys and I am pumped to go to work after finishing this. :)
