Suppose I deposited 1440 dollars into your bank account every single day with only one requirement: You are free to spend every penny of it, but whatever you don't spend today can't be carried over to tomorrow; You would just lose it. What would you do? Well I am pretty sure you would spend every bit of it and not waste a single cent. Well God gives each of us 1440 minutes in every single day. We can choose to "spend" those minutes wisely or we can choose to waste them. Whatever is wasted, though, is gone forever. The definition of "wasting" time varies from person to person. But I would think anything that we do that doesn't glorify God would be wasting time. That does not mean that we need to spend all our time only praying, going to church, or reading the Bible. We can Glorify God with everything we do. We can Glorify Him while we are doing our jobs, while we are driving in traffic, and even while we are shopping at the grocery store. Today, let's ask God to help us find some additional ways we can Glorify Him. After all, our 1400 minutes are ticking away.
Colossians 3:23 says, "Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people."
Father, please help us to not waste anytime and to learn how to spend every minute Glorifying You. In Jesus name, Amen.
My sentiments exactly , we dont have to designate a time. We can do it 24 /7 . I talk to Jesus all the time. Its so compforting. he wants us to be in fellowship with him constantly . awsome post!
