It's been a while
Times is continuous regardless of all the time management course we take. But isn't that the problem, we think we can manage things that we have no control over. Time for instance, we use time saving devices and are busier that ever keeping up with the latest toys. How many times have you said - I don't have the time - when you actually do have the time you just do not want to spend it on whoever or whatever was just suggested. Of course it is everyone else who wastes their time and we get upset at people wasting it like it doesn't matter. We really do act like little messiahs. Time is an equal opportunity employer. Everyone has equal amounts of time and everyone invests it according to what is important. I know we do not like to hear that because we would like to blame our inability to invest our time on someone else - but here is the rub - we are all responsible for how we invest this gift of time. Think of it this way, if a complete stranger would look at your life through the use of your time, and nothing else - what would they conclude are the top 5 important things in your life?

Wow. This really hit home. The Lord has been laying this heavy on my heart since my husband died. I feel like I have more things to do now but the same amount of time and it's frustrating. What is valuable to me and how to I spend my time... It is my CHOICE how I spend my time and on who I spend it with. What are my priorities and do my choices truly reflect what I say they are. I need to think of my time as a precious jewel, a gift from God, that needs to be cherished and protected.
