Ever stop to think….and forget to start again? :D
I've been reading through Job lately and a verse that stuck out to me was
Job 37:14 Hearken unto this, O Job: stand still, and consider the wondrous works of God.
In this fast-paced, gottahaveitnow, eat great even late, have it your way world, it's hard to stand still. I know that I can think of many other things to do while I'm already doing many things. It's a never ending cycle of Restless Life Syndrome. I think that is was Satan is doing to us. He keeps us so busy thinking that we have to be doing something that we don't take the time to stop.
Stand still and consider. Stop and think. About what? The wondrous works of God. Job, a man that God said there was none like in the earth, perfect and upright, one that feared God and stayed from evil (paraphrased from Job 1:8), is told to stand still and consider the wondrous works of God.
Life is short and eternity is forever. Take time now to stop and consider His works.

Great thoughts!
Satan tries to get us so distracted with television, internet, movies, friends, or whatever he can to keep us busy and not thinking about God. Great post!
