He calls me "friend"!

I would love to spend this sunny spring day working on craft projects and doing some decluttering but my daily life is so busy of just trying to keep up with the housework, appointments, school and church events, instrument lessons for the boys and so on.  I would also love to be out in the yard working on the flower beds, making them look all pretty for this season of blooms.  But all of this is not nearly as important as spending time with my Saviour.  I get so busy with all of this business and then try to make time for my fun stuff that I forget about reading my bible and spending time in prayer.  How can I have a relationship with Him if I'm not communicating or listening to Him?  I know He's still there because He tells me that He'll never leave me, so even though I've been away for a while I know He'll take me back.  What a faithful friend I have in Jesus!
