What is it about time? I can't sleep right now because I'm thinking about time. Our society bases it's "do's/don'ts" based on time. "I don't have enough time to work out, but I have enough time to watch a movie. I don't have anytime for my kids but I have enough time for some drinks at the pub" Courtney and I have 4 clocks just in our kitchen to remind us of the time. We have 2 alarm clocks in our bedroom to remind us when to wake up for our day. Casinos in Vegas don't have clocks because they (casinos) don't want the gamblers to know the time of day or how much time they've spent gambling. Why is time so freakin important?
I recently had a conversation with a friend and wasted no time in asking him a bold question about his relationship. I just felt that I have no time for "fluffy" questions and went straight to the point. I have this feeling that God has me on earth for a certain amount of time and while I may feel like each day is an eternity its only a blink to God. So with this mounting pressure of time I feel I have a responsibilty to speak truths in love and waste little time in doing so. I want my marriage and life to be something worthy of standing infront of the Creator and present daily accounts of not wasting my time nor His. I want to feel I'm utilizing my time for the Kingdom and I don't have that feeling right now. I hope grace covers my mismanagement of time...
