It's The Little Things - A Personal Story

(The following is a personal post from a group member.)

I got up this morning, and looked on my smartphone at the list of email I had received overnight.  There were some important emails that I would need to take care of later today.  I started to think about them.  I started to think about how to answer particular ones.  I started to forget that I need to begin every day with a time of prayer and reading to connect with God first thing in the morning. And even when I turned around and went back to where I kneel for prayer, my mind was already distracted with many things.  It was much harder to "connect" with God this morning. 

It's usually the little things that set me up for the big things to knock me down.
