God Given Currency

TODAY’S SCRITPURE:

“Yet you do not know [the least thing] about what may happen tomorrow.  What is the nature of your life?  You are [really] but a wisp of vapor (a puff of smoke, a mist) that is visible for a little while and then disappears [into thin air].”  (James 4:14 Amplified)

TODAY’S THOUGHT:

How do you spend your time? Are you working, relaxing, watching television or reading a book? Let me go one step further; with the time that you have available, how much time do you spend with the Lord?

Time is perhaps our most basic resource, but how you use God’s gift of time has a profound affect not only on your life, but also in the lives of others. God has given you a currency on earth and that currency is called time. You are given 24 hours in a day and how you decide to spend your time is ultimately your decision.

I recently read the following quote from an unknown source, “We master our minutes, or we become slaves to them; we use time, or time uses us.” With this God given currency you have to invest it wisely. Unfortunately, many people do not value the time that God has so graciously given. You cannot save time, carry over time, or acquire more time. Each day is a new day and how you decide to use those 24 hours is your decision. Today decide to use your time wisely. Go ahead, time is ticking.
