To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
ECCLESIASTES 3:1
TIME
It seems as if I am in chains to my schedules and all the meaningless stuff I fill them with.
I personally struggle with setting my priorities. Just because I struggle DOESN'T mean I'm giving/have to give up the fight!
What I do with my time, private or public, says a lot about who I am. Time cannot be re-attained. Therefore, I should make the most of the time I'm given.
When making a decision to do something, I'm changing some things.
I will weigh my options and go with the one that most honors God with my time.
More often I will ask myself, "Does what I'm doing/getting ready to do, bring honor to God? Is it the best use of my time to maximize the potential for THIS moment? What do I wish to accomplish by spending time on..............?".
As a minister, EVERY hour of EVERY day for the rest of my life has been surrendered to Jesus and His call on my life!
Does my schedule and the activities I fill it with reflect this?
"Your life is God's gift to you, what you do with your life is your gift to HIM".

I don't know about y'all, but I want to live a life that is COMPLETELY surrendered to Jesus! A life that reflects my gratitude for the cross!
Hey guy,
ReplyDeleteI totally get this. I definitely get frustrated with time. Especially in a culture like Africa where it is so easy to just kick back and do NOTHING all day. I often find myself about to fall asleep and having to repent of my slothfulness that day. There is a balance in there somewhere... lets hope we can find it sooner than later!
