Busyness/Business of Life

Interesting the difference one letter can make.  Take busyness and business.  If we follow the rule we were taught in school, you should change the "y" in busy to an "i" before you add the suffix.  But busy is one of those exceptions...or is it.  Often we confuse the business of life with the busyness of life.

For instance we often confuse what is important with what is demanding our attention.  We know that people are more important than jobs or television or the internet.  But do we invest our time in people OR do we allow the busyness of life to interupt the important business of life? 

During this last week of Lent I encourage you to think about how busy your life is.  What is the business that is so important that it takes you away from God and friends and family and community.  Only you  can decide what the most important business and busyness of life is.
