Time...

Where has the time gone? The one and only blog post I last did was in January!! Gosh... Speaking of time I heard a great message last night by Wes Martin about how much our "time" matters to God. I know for myself I really do waste precious moments in my day all the time! What also hit home was that God ALSO cares how I spend my money, relationships and treat the things he has given to me. I mean I always "knew" God cared about all these things, but now the caring part is really meaningful to me. I really do waste time! Facebook does not help! :) I want my inner life in God to be strong, therefore I know I must keep Him first.


Prov 19:20-23 Listen to counsel and receive instruction, [that] you may be wise in your latter days. 21There are many plans in a man's heart, nevertheless the LORD's counsel -- that will stand…23The fear of the LORD leads to life…

1. We live in the land of many, many options and good ideas. Plans to grow in wealth, grow in ministry, grow in influence...lots of good things. But only the Lord’s counsel will stand.

2. We must begin to steward everything in light of the fear of the Lord and turn away from things that consume our time and ultimately lead to wasting our life.

3. We need to invite the Spirit of wisdom to confront any wisdom from this age that is at work in us. ~Wes Martin

I want to have a schedule and really stick with it, so my time will be used wisly...Lord help!!!
