Got Time?

"Lost time is never found again.” -Benjamin Franklin

If you need more time then you probably need to give some. Have you ever noticed that people who don’t have any time for anyone else never seem to have any for themselves. If you give time you will end up getting time. You reap what you sow, so sow.

Imagine what happens when you give time to God. He’s has the ability to transcend time. You give some of your finite time to God He gives you something infinite.

If you need to make more of your time keep a schedule and make sure that God is in it.

"You cannot kill time without injuring eternity." — Henry David Thoreau

Eph 5:15-18
15 See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, 16 redeeming the time, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
NKJV

Eph 5:15-17
15 So watch your step. Use your head. 16 Make the most of every chance you get. These are desperate times!
17 Don't live carelessly, unthinkingly. Make sure you understand what the Master wants.
MES

Eph 5:15-17
15-16 So be careful how you act; these are difficult days. Don't be fools; be wise: make the most of every opportunity you have for doing good. 17 Don't act thoughtlessly, but try to find out and do whatever the Lord wants you to.
TLB

Eph 5:15-17
15 So be careful how you live. Don't live like ignorant people, but like wise people. 16 Make good use of every opportunity you have, because these are evil days. 17 Don't be fools, then, but try to find out what the Lord wants you to do.
GNT

Eph 5:13
Be constantly taking heed there-fore how accurately you are conducting yourselves, not as unwise ones but as wise ones, buying up for yourselves the opportune time, because the days are pernicious. On this account stop becoming those who are without reflection or intelligence, but be understanding what the will of the Lord is.
Wuest

Eph 5:15-17
15 Look carefully then how you walk! Live purposefully and worthily and accurately, not as the unwise and witless, but as wise (sensible, intelligent people),
16 Making the very most of the time [buying up each opportunity], because the days are evil.
17 Therefore do not be vague and thoughtless and foolish, but understanding and firmly grasping what the will of the Lord is.
