Life can be rocking along fine, everything is going good and then all of a sudden something happens and it throws life off center. It can just be one event or a string of circumstances. It could be a phone call in the middle of the night or news that you were not expecting. It could be as simple as not seeing your agenda fulfilled or being to busy to breath. Whatever the case, when you life is spinning and reeling, it can get really out of control real quick. Missing one day of your quiet time is one thing, but when a day turns to a week and a week a month, that is when something is wrong. If you are not careful a life that is spinning and reeling can quickly become a life that is out of control.
I heard a wise man say once that when you are living a life that is out of control you do things that are out of character. The only way I know to regain the control is to stop spinning. Step back take a breath and understand what is happening around you. Check out of life for a day. It might surprise you but life will carry on without you. The world will not crumble just because you stop spinning. You have to understand when you are spinning out of control you are not only hurting yourself but you are hurting those that God has placed around you.
Life gets off-centered from time to time. You have to stop and catch your breath, empty somethings out of your life and then get up and go again.
