Do You Have The Time - PART 2!

Do you have the time?
The time that it takes to become the person God has called you to be?
The time that it takes to develop your life to the fullest, to celebrate all that God has done and is doing?  Time, my friends is the greatest asset each one of us has.   Using the acronymn TIME we can learn to use our time more wisely, develop our time more fully and celebrate our time completely!
T –   Treasure your Time!
There is nothing more valuable than your time.  You get 86,400 seconds every single day and not one more or one less.  These 24 hours are your daily capital.
I –    Invest your Time!
Despite all the appliances and do-dads that promise to SAVE you time, you really can’t save it – you can only invest it.  If you don’t use it, you will lose it!  And where you invest it tells us what is most important to you.  Do you know that most people after all is said and done really only have about 5 hours per day of  discretionary time?  Where do you use those precious minutes?  Do you know?
M – Manage your Time
Like money, time will either be managed by you, or it will manage you.  And of course  ”time” is never really managed – as Steven Covey says in   his book, you can only really manage yourself!  If you are one that complains about not having enough time, just remember that you are the one who choses how your time is managed!
E –  Enjoy your Time
This is the RESULT of time that is treasured, time that is invested well and time that is managed.  As Christians this end result is “being” a disciple, being in a faithful, fruitful relationship that brings joy to our lives.
Time is a gift from God!  Treasure it, Invest it, Manage it, and ENJOY IT!
Blessings,
