"Imagine there is a bank account that credits your account each morning with $86,400. It carries over no balance from day to day. Every evening the bank deletes whatever part of the balance you failed to use during the day. What would you do? Draw out every cent, of course? Each of us has such a bank. Its name is time. Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds. Every night it writes off as lost, whatever of this you have failed to invest to a good purpose. It carries over no balance. It allows no over draft. Each day it opens a new account for you. Each night it burns the remains of the day. If you have to use the day's deposits, the loss is yours. There is no drawing against "tomorrow." You must live in the present on today's deposits. Invest it so as to get from it the most."
I found this paragraph and I wanted to share it first because it says what I want to say. In concluding this post I want us all to think and remember to ponder this often. We have time and we must spend it wisely. Throughout scripture it says plainly that wisdom cries out from every corner. Are you listening to the heavenly wisdom as you spend your time? I'm not writing this to guilt trip everyone because i'm the last person on this planet to do so! I know there is plenty of time that I waste and I do not say this proudly. We always want gifts and yet we fail to appreciate the gift of time that is renewed and given to us every day. Life is a gift from God and we must remember that! We are able to set our priorities straight as we spent more time in the presence of Jehovah, God Almighty. Troubles vanish, hearts are mended, and peace is imparted to our souls. We hunger for that and we can obtain that as we spend time in the presence of the Lord.
You have 86,400 seconds. How are you going to spend it? Will you spend it with Him? and will you help others to spend it with Him? The choice is yours!
God Bless You All!
