For this period of time, I have been busy with work. Everyday, I leave home 7:00AM and back home 9:00PM. I hardly read bible or pray. My life is just robotically operating. With my hardwork to my job, I expect appreciation and reward but nothing happen.
On the other hand, I am away from God. My mind is filled with all the earthly stuff such as house and car. Planning and calculating the cost to buy a house and a second car while planning to get marriage soon, all these are dream keep in mind of my financial status.
(Haggai 1:9-11) "You expected much, but see, it turned out to be little. What you brought home, I blew away. Why?" declares the LORD Almighty. "Because of my house, which remains a ruin, while each of you is busy with his own house. Therefore, because of you the heavens have withheld their dew and the earth its crops. I called for a drought on the fields and the mountains, on the grain, the new wine, the oil and whatever the ground produces, on men and cattle, and on the labor of your hands."
Do you belief the heaven will release their dew and the earth its crops if you put the priority to built the house of God first?

I understand the busy life, I'm doing about the same too, it's just because I stay far away from my office, and I am depending on someone to send me home.
You still can spend 5 minute or 10 to read bible or any other articles before you sleep, right?
Don't just think life is busy, and just keep it to be busy, but no time for anything else. surely one day, you'll be exhausted!
Everyone expect appreciation, especially when you perform good & contribute a lot, or even sacrifice! But, sometimes you just can't expect too much from others. You can only request yourself for doing something, but not others.
Hope you'll slowly find a better lifestyle~~
and wish you will achieve your dreams soon! ^_^
