Today’s readings are out of Ephesians 5:15-16 and Psalm 90:12. Begin today’s devotion by reading these passages in your Bible.
One of the most iconic Twilight Zone episodes was about a man who never could get enough time to himself. He eventually found a stopwatch that could stop time so he could do everything that his heart desired. Have you ever thought about what you would do if you had more time? The truth is that each of us gets the same 24hrs/day and 168hrs/week. The question, always, is how well we steward our time based on the current life season we are in. Since time is so valuable, how we spend our time says a lot about what we value. In today’s devotion, read the passages below and consider how you can use the time that God has given you in the best ways possible.
Ephesians 5:15-16 (ESV) 15 Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the best use of the time, becausethe days are evil.
Psalm 90:12 Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.
Keep detailed track of how you spend your time today. What do you spend the most time doing? Is this how you want to spend your time? If not, identify 1-2 things you can change and begin putting them into practice.
Lord, please help me to be a good steward of the time that You have given to me. Show me how to invest it wisely and not squander it on worthless pursuits. I want to use my time today for You. Amen.
