Where There Is a Will, There’s a Way

People make time for the things they truly enjoy. Sports fans often stay up late into the night—or even until morning—to watch an important match. Many binge-watch movies or television series for hours without realizing how much time has passed. Events like the FIFA World Cup remind us of how willingly people adjust their schedules for something they love.

This is not necessarily a bad thing. We all have interests, hobbies, and moments of rest that are part of life. Yet they also reveal an important truth: when something truly matters to us, we usually find a way to make time for it.

Perhaps, then, our greatest challenge is not always a lack of time, but a matter of priority and desire. As the familiar saying goes, "Where there is a will, there is a way." It is worth asking ourselves: do we have the will to prioritize our relationship with God? The will to spend time in His Word? The will to know Him more deeply and to understand ourselves in light of His truth? The will to invest in the things that shape our souls rather than only the things that entertain us?

It is not uncommon to hear people say they are too busy for church, fellowship, or Bible study. Sometimes that is genuinely true. Life can be demanding, and responsibilities can be overwhelming. Yet there are also moments when our schedules simply reflect what we value most. The issue may not always be the absence of time, but the way we choose to use the time we have.

This is not written to criticize those who love sports, movies, or other hobbies. Enjoying these things is not wrong. Rather, it is an invitation for all of us to pause and reflect on our priorities. Are we giving our relationship with God the same intentionality that we give to the things we naturally enjoy? Are we making room for fellowship, Scripture, and prayer, not merely out of obligation, but because we recognize their lasting value?

If there is a will, there is often a way. May God help us cultivate not only the discipline, but also the desire to seek Him first, trusting that time spent with Him is never time wasted.
