Devotional for Thursday, March 8, 2018
“Time…Don’t Waste It.”
 
 
 
How we spend our time will change with the different seasons of our life. But there is one thing for sure, and there is one principal that applies to every moment of this life, and that is we are not to waste it. The Lord desires that we wake up each day with purpose before us as we follow Him, and how He is directing our paths.
 
 
Seek in everything that you do to glorify the Lord. Whether you are on the job, or you are in your home, spending time with friends, no matter what… Always seek to glorify Him. It is as we do this we are keeping an awareness that every moment of our life is accounted for, and our Lord is included in it.
 
 
Time is part of God‘s provision for us, and we must seek to use it wisely. Let us also make sure that we are seeking time to fellowship with Him. Many times people think they do not have time to spend with the Lord because their lives are so busy, but many times it’s those moments in which there is no demand that we can stop and just speak with Him and draw upon His strength. I leave you with this quote from one of my favorite devotionals by François de Fenelon…
 
 
“Those who know the Lord well cannot resist turning to him in every available moment.“
 
 
I encourage you this day to seek those available moments that you can turn to Him perhaps to tell Him you love Him, share the questions of your heart, or simply praise Him.
