Time

In this busy world in which we are living, right now it seems that we are all busier with more things than ever before in our lives. We must ever be watchful to be aware of those things that would steal our time from the Lord and intimacy with Him.

What is it today that is stealing your time? Are there areas of unnecessary time consumption? Are you spending the time with The Father, Jesus, The Holy Spirit that you believe He wants?

It is not always the amount of time but the quality of the relationship. What is short to one person may be long to another. This is a personal inventory, not one to critique ourselves against someone else and either feel condemned or superior.

Time is a very unique commodity that God has given us to live in while we are here on this earth. God is a God of limitless time called eternity. There is no time factor in the heavenly sphere of the spirit, as eternity is without time. I know that our finite minds cannot comprehend that. Remember that God lives in eternity and because He lives in you, then you live in eternity.

Let God be the Lord of your time and redeem it where necessary. Put Him in charge of each day when you get up. Ask the Holy Spirit to order your steps. This is an area of faith that we all need to walk in.

Enjoy the rest of your day and your week and your life as you turn your time over to the Lord. You will be astounded to see what He will do with it. What is interesting is that all of your work will be accomplished. You will turn around and say: How did I do that?
