God has entrusted us with the precious gift of time. Twenty four hours in every day; seven days in a every week; each day significant, each hour important, and each moment of value to God. How many of those moments are being spent on things that truly matter in light of eternity? Only when we are willing to give God the best hours of our day—rather than whatever is left after we have wasted most of our time on earthly things—will we truly experience intimacy with our Heavenly Father. Many of us look at our daily schedules and can't see any available time for seeking God or sharing the Gospel with others. Yet often, our lives are filled with worldly distractions and time-wasters that take up far more of our free time than we realize. Social media, Internet surfing, phone chats, movies, and television are a few of the most common culprits. It’s not that these things are necessarily always wrong in themselves, but if not put in their proper place, they can quickly dominate our time and pull us away from building our lives around God’s priorities. When we aren’t guarded in these areas, we often waste the majority of our time on temporal things, without even realizing we are doing so. As you go about your daily life, prayerfully examine the motives behind why you spend time doing the things that you do.
