"Blessed are you, O Lord; teach mr your principals." Psalm 119:12
At the end of the day when the busyness of life settles down, what do I have to show for with time given to me within the 24 hour period?
Did I use part of that time with the Lord?
Did I use another portion serving others?
Did I use a bit of that time investing in the life of my boys-learning more about them, their likes and dislikes?
From time to time did I stop to just say, "Thank You Jesus."
Did I use some time to tell some about Jesus or encourage them through His word?
Did I spend time praying for those who are hurting, sick, or just in need of prayer?
Or have I have gone a million miles an hour being so caught up in things that don't really matter that much but please me or please someone other than God?
What do I do with the time I am given?
What have I done with it for the past 31 years that I need to do better these next however many years I have left?
Time is fleeting and we never get it back nor do we get back the days we missed being in his word, sharing His word, loving, encouraging and teaching our children the word.
We beg for more time but we don't even make use of the time we are given!
Jesus don't let me waste another day filling it with junk or busyness. Help me make the most of each day and the time I have left. May each day be spent investing in You and in others. Keep me from being wasteful. Thank You for the time You are going to give me and forgive me for the time I wasted on myself. Amen
