What time is it?

Some would define God as a great clockmaker, who wound the world up and then walked away to let the world-clock run on its own. But God is anything but negligent of his creation. Though God lives in eternity and dwells outside of time, he still plays an active role in it.

God’s gift of time is precious. As stewards of our time, it’s our decision in how we use it. With our pre-determined number of days, what are we to do with them?

With the 86,400 seconds in each day, the way we prioritize those moments is important to getting the best out of life. We can be distracted with the unimportant, or we can live each day as though it were our last. Oftentimes, for some, we are consumed with the unimportant. We can choose to honor him through what we spend our time on or dishonor him. It’s our choice.

For the saved, we’ve come to know that seeking his face in all we do is better than doing things on our own. Let it be our resolution to seek His kingdom rather than possessions and Godliness rather than selfishness. Though it is so easy to fall short, we should aim for the highest.

Always remember, our days are numbered by God for a purpose. Today could be our last. Make the best use of what he has given and know that each day is in his hands.
