People get so caught up with their day-to-day activities that they are busy almost every day.

Popular Christian speaker and author Joyce Meyer says that is not a good way to live.

"God would much rather see you relaxed and confident in Him, peaceful and fulfilling your purpose in life. So if you're in a habit of feeling anxious and overwhelmed, I want to help you fix that," she writes in an article for The Christian Post.

Busy people assume that time is the problem because there simply isn't enough of it, but Meyer says that God gives everyone the same amount—24 hours a day, seven days a week.

"I guess that's God's way of saying that's all the time we need to live a well-balanced life with plenty of time for work, rest and play," she says.

So instead of people dreading about not having enough time, Meyer suggests that they make the decision to have more wisdom on how to use their time.

"You know, we spend time just like we spend money. When we spend it, it's gone, and we can't get it back. So we need to think about what we are spending it on and decide whether or not we are making the right choices," she says.

God did not call His people to be busy, since He wants His children to live purposefully and be fruitful. It won't be so difficult, says Meyer, since all Christians have to do is forge a close, personal relationship with God.

"No matter what you have to do to make time with God your top priority, you are never going to regret doing it. There is absolutely no better way to spend your time than to pray and study God's Word," she assures. "It will bring you peace, joy, confidence, wisdom and understanding. You'll be encouraged. You can be healed. There's just no end to the good things that can happen in your life when you put God first."
