• 1:10
  - when busyness is drowning out God's direction.
• 1:16
  - Oftentimes,
• 1:17
  - we as believers aren't intentionally ignoring God.
• 1:21
  - I mean, truth be told, I'm sure we
• 1:24
  - would all want to have
• 1:25
  - some level of connection with him.
• 1:28
  - The challenge is that we just simply get
• 1:31
  - overwhelmed
• 1:32
  - between work and family responsibilities,
• 1:35
  - appointments, notifications, and and endless to do list.
• 1:39
  - There can be little time
• 1:42
  - for stillness,
• 1:43
  - and yet it is so important and required.
• 1:48
  - We often ask God for direction while leaving
• 1:50
  - no space to listen.
• 1:52
  - And there in lies the danger.
• 1:55
  - When we don't take the time to seek
• 1:57
  - his
• 1:58
  - direction and guidance,
• 2:01
  - it can leave us with detrimental
• 2:04
  - results

• 2:29
  - listen, and worship.
• 2:32

• 2:34
  - hearing your voice is more important than completing
• 2:36
  - another task
• 2:38
  - or scratching something off on our to do
• 2:41
  - list.
• 2:43
