Getting my act into gear

Okay...we are all busy...thats a fact. But lately I have been allowing myself to become increasing unorganised to the point where Im losing sight of whats most important! Im forgetting things, Im doing things poorly and basically missing out on things that I want to be part of.

Tonight I was fortunate enough to be invited to an event where I got to hear the founder of ICC speak. Basically he is in Australia for a short trip, and as part of that trip, this event was organised to give people who have participated in ICC ventures or have a heart for mission in China, to gather together and discuss the awesome things that ICC is doing.

I have to admit that lately, I havent been as focused on the trip as I really should be. I have been consumed with a lot of things...good and bad. But above all...I havent been dedicating enough time to this trip. Im well aware of how vital it is to have my body, mind and heart prepared for God to work and utilise me as I venture into China. Going as part of an amazing group, I have the opportunity to make an even bigger difference. But none of this is going to happen on its own...its going to take dedication and effort!

Listening to David Gotts speak tonight, I felt myself get a kick into gear! There is only just over two months till I head off to China...so I have to get moving!! No more allowing myself to be distracted with things that are not important!

But how do I discern what is and isnt important? Easy...I just need to ask myself...Is this important to Christ? Simple really....
