I wish I knew from the start this was how it would end

I wouldn't have bothered to find out what you wanted

Walking away would have done me some good

But due to my inquisitive self, I listened

Oh! I wish I knew from the start this was how it would end

During Sunday's church service, the preacher talked about prayer. “We are constantly on our phones calling, texting and emailing our friends and hardly have the time to talk to God due to our busy lives.” It got me thinking about my relationship with God. Lately, I have been so busy with school projects and assignments that I have not been a faithful child of God. I hardly have time to pray and read the Bible, because I get home feeling very tired. I only have time for dinner, change then sleep.

Most Sunday's, I go to church but get lost in my thoughts whenever we get into the sermon.

Later in the day, my family and I went to visit a friend who has not been feeling well.  Except for the cast on his leg, he is fine.  As we interacted with him, he said that in his lifetime he had never been on a long break like this one. But he is grateful that now his relationship with God is stronger due to the fact that he is focusing on getting better and reflecting on God’s word.

I should not justify my actions but accept that I am on the wrong in regards to my 
spirituality.
