the days go by so fast.

there are days when it all feels too much. i feel worried that i'm not doing everything i want to in life. some days i want to stay home and read an entire book. there's something great about devoting all your attention to one thing. but i don't do that. or some days i want to see someone realize how much Jesus loves them, and it doesn't happen.

or i want to pray more. i want to pray hours on end. but then i get bored and distracted and end up looking for food in the fridge and opening netflix.

maybe i'm too hard on myself. or not...

but still, this verse haunts me, in a good way.

colossians 4:2

"pray diligently. stay alert, with your eyes wide open in gratitude."

and later on in that chapter... "make the most of every opportunity."
