Have I told you a common theme with my conversations with God lately?
"No distractions, Heidi Rae!"
It is an everyday reminder from Him to me.
And, it's so loving and so compassionate and so full of grace... as is most every conversation with The Father.
He simply reminds me, "No distractions, Heidi Rae."
As an addict, distractions are THE WORST.
Whether you are addicted to chemicals or have a process addiction - distractions derail you quicker than anything else.
Social media: distracting mist of darkness
A phone or computer or tablet or any electronic device: distracting mist of darkness
Conversations with people who you really have no business having a conversation with: distracting mist of darkness
Don't get me wrong: there are lots of great distractions!
For me:
Coloring
Writing
Dancing to the Footloose soundtrack
Facetiming the nephews
Watching baseball
But, we have to be so careful about where we are putting our time and energy.
Distractions can take us ALL the way off course if we aren't completely firm with our own boundaries.
"No distractions" is my current caution flag and I'm here for it!
