Quiet Times For Sale

If you do enough web searches, you'll run across some interesting text ads. Writing this post, I tried to find out if "quiet time" is hyphenated. The search produced this ad:

Quiet Times for Sale
Low Priced Quiet Times.
Huge Selection! (aff)

Tempting offer...

I concede to my innermost self that I'm powerless over time.

Even after receiving loving guidance for my day, the plan often falls apart by midday and I resort to "do I go here?", "what do I do next?". Maybe I should refer to my HP as "Higher Patience".

Among my time-difficulties, I don't write my personal spiritual appointments down. I'll write in a sponsee appointment. I'll write in my meetings for the whole year. Quiet time for prayer, reading and meditation? I'll schedule something in that slot in a breath. I'm not doing anything then, right?

Among my corrections for this error in my ways, I'm going to start writing in time to work on this blog.

"...praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out."
