The motivations, desires, and affections of our heart are often revealed through the way in which we spend days.
Take some time to evaluate where/how you spend your time. Ask the Lord to help you see how you can more fully submit your days to him. Ask him to help you think creatively about how you can create space for margin and rest as well as space to spend time with him so that you can point the motivations, desires, and affections of your heart toward him.
