Time Reminder

Time is screaming!!! Every part of our lives is needing more time and yet instead of stopping time we try to create more. The whole borrow from here to pay there. It’s not like money where you can go make more and yet I would say its way more valuable!!! Let me prove it to you. There are only 24 hours in 1 day, you can't create more, you can't go back and redo, you can't save hours, and you can't earn them. If you think about it there is not too many things in life that have these narrow restrictions and yet we squander time. Do you plan your time with your children, your family, God, your spouse like you plan your money? Do you calculate and prioritize like you do your investments or your retirement? Or do you operate your time by whatever is screaming the loudest? Time, the most valuable thing we have and most of us don't even control it.  We have not even talked about the unknown expiration of it!!!  We are weeks away from a school shooting that just happened in Sante Fe Texas a town down the street where 10 people ran out of time!!! Their time was drastically cut short. The value of time something that doesn’t even land on the stock market, however, 10 families I would venture to say would trade everything they have for more time!!! These events tend to jolt us for a moment, but do they change us for a lifetime? The 10 family’s lives will never be the same! At the hands of another they must now cope with their time. Could this event be a wakeup call? Could we honor the fallen by giving something they no longer have to give? Could Time be one piece to this disturbing puzzle?  Make time is the general statement used to encourage us to act, however, time isn’t something that can be made. Maybe we should face the reality that in prioritizing our time we have a lot of work to do. We don’t need to make more time ........ we need to make more with the time we have. More family, more God, more good, more laughter, more rest, more love, more memories!  Maybe our young people need more of this. Maybe our young people with all the devices that steel their time need some good old family attention. Maybe our young people need to be given our time instead of our money! Maybe our young people are suffering from the mismanagement of time!  Give the gift that is highly honored and never forgotten, Make your time matter in the lives around you.
