what is one way to distract yourself from a goal? find something that becomes more interesting and more captivating than the goal. perhaps this has happened in your life?--prayer life comes second because boyfriend is AWESOME (of course, you wouldn't date anyone who wasn't), church takes a backseat because Sunday is homework catch up day...etc. You know your situation, I don't need to guess at it or point things out. This I will make brief and leave you with.
Exodus 20:3-4--no one should come before God.
Mark 12:30--we are to love God with ALL our heart, soul, mind and strength.
Self check: (because you and God are the only ones that know 100% what's going on between the 2 of you)...are you doing what these scriptures say or has something else become the object of your attention and worship?

Thank you. It's always been something that I've struggled with, though lately in my walk I've gotten better about it, to not get caught up in my own busy day. To take time to read, to pray, to praise. Last year in particular, I began to often remind myself of Psalms 46:10, "Be still, and know that I am the Lord."
Actually, I just posted a new entry on this. You might say that God helped me articulate my thoughts on this through your entry! Thanks!
