"day and night"

I have been thinking a lot about the words "day and night" lately. I have been reading/memorizing/meditating on Joshua 1: 8-9. In verse 8 it says to meditate on God's word "day and night". Those words seemed to pop out when I read them. All throughout high school I have been taught by the church that it is important to have a quiet time weather it be 5 min 10 min or even an hour. I was told that God wanted to spend time with me and even if I only gave him 5 min of my whole heart that he would be happy with that. Im not saying that I disagree. I don't I do believe that we should give God the time he deserves and I know that some days it is hard to make that time. Believe me. I know. It happens often. I get in a rut or I spend my day doing other stuff and by the time I go to sleep I have either forgotten or I was too tired to take the time to spend with God. The challenge that I have been facing is this. God want's more than 5 min of my time. He wants my whole "day and night". I have been challenged to start my day and end my day spending time in God's word. ITS NOT EASY but I feel like thats part of the deal. Its always easier to get on Facebook or text your friend or even just go to sleep instead. But when you spend your time meditating "day and night" on what God has to say to you it makes living a whole lot more exciting. Like I said, its not always easy, but what would life be without the challenge? Who would God be if we didn't have to trust in Him? Im still a work in progress and I am excited for what God is teaching me, but I want to challenge YOU to think about what it would look like to meditate on God's word "day and night".

Joshua 1: 8 " Keep this Book of Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful."
