Hearing and Doing

I recently read a beautifully written article By a father who suddenly recognize how the excess time he spends with technology Has negatively affected his young daughter He went on to chide himself and our culture for being too busy Wrote expressively the importance of being present to one another He made wonderful points in an elegant manner But as I finished the article I never realized that he never said What he was going to do about it He didn’t seem to have an action plan I have done the same thing in my life I may recognize an area in my life that is out of balance Feel guilty about it Even promise myself that I will make a change Yet never get around to it It is only when I take time to prayerfully reflect to my resistance My fear My insecurity and turn to God that I know I am serious about changing my behavior
