Always On My Mind

Growing up in church, I'd often hear scriptures like 1 Thessalonians 5:17 (pray without ceasing, KJV) quoted. I would often wonder how I could do that when there were so many other things to do. School, studying, homework, etc. Should I not be doing those things and instead be at home praying 24/7? As I grew, both physically and spiritually, I began to understand that when I embrace this faith as a part of my lifestyle, then it becomes natural to have Christ on my mind in all things. Whether I'm bowling, mall strolling with friends, or watching a movie, something clicks and shifts my mind to heavenly things. Therein is the peace that I should desire every moment.
