I was recently in a home that was so filthy, I wouldn't want to live there. Resulting in making me even more pedantic about my own house cleaning chores. The question is, how often don't we relegate our relationship with God to just another thing to do on our To-do-list?
In all honesty though, with city life being what it is, it can be very difficult to stay in touch with God and keeping him central in our lives. St Francis of Assis wrote a wonderful book called, "Practicing the presence of God". Interesting title seeing as he was a Monk who's life calling was to spend time in God's presence. Was he implying that though devout to God he had still not mastered the art of keeping God in clear focus?
He probably was. You see our lives here on earth are meant to be our training ground to teach us how to connect with God. It is only once we are in heaven in God's full presence all day that this art will be fully mastered.
Don't fret about still struggling to spend time with God, fall in love with him and all you will want to do is think about him all day!
