balance

But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
- Matthew 6:33 (NKJV)

The world today is crazy busy. I often find myself wishing for more hours in the day, more days in the week, and more weeks in the month just to get everything done. Between work, family, friends, and responsibilities, it’s easy to feel stretched thin.
We talk a lot about “balance,” but true balance doesn’t come from perfect scheduling—it comes from putting God first.
It’s okay to say no sometimes. It’s okay to pause, breathe, and take a moment to pray instead of pushing through another task. It’s not only okay—it’s necessary.
I recently saw a meme on Facebook that said, “No matter the place or time, talk to God.” I thought it sounded like a Bible verse, so I looked it up. Google didn’t find me a verse, but it did lead me down a rabbit hole of articles—how to talk to God, when to talk to God, even why we should.
And then it hit me: the answer was simple. Seek Him first.
When you’re frustrated with work—seek Him.
When you’re lonely—seek Him.
When you’re scared—seek Him.
When life feels out of control—seek Him.
Because when you seek God first—no matter the place or time—everything else begins to fall into place. He centers your heart, calms your thoughts, and reminds you that His timing and His plans are always perfect.
True balance isn’t found in doing it all—it’s found in trusting the One who holds it all together.
