Running around and out of touch.

My capacity to get so busy that I get out of touch with what is important to me, my relationships with God, my wife, and the rest of my family. Or should I say that I allow myself to think I am too busy to spend the right amount of time in these relationships. Time management has always been a difficulty for me and with the workload that is ahead of me until the end of the semester is not going to make it any easier for another month and a half.
In an effort to stay connected with God when I am running around during a busy time I pray on the move or when I have a few moments, listen to christian/praise & worship music, and read my bible reading for the day during lunch, but it always feels like half of what it could be and never wholly sincere on my part. I always get a powerful conviction that I am planning God around my day and that it should be the other way around. It is great to see God at work around you and to notice Him throughout the day, but that is not a substitute for quality time with Him.
