“So teach
us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.” Psa 90:12
My
nieces posted a very poignant quote this morning: “Don’t leave this world
having let everyone else use you but God.” We are prone to invest the majority of our
time into that which brings about worldly returns. We must be sensitive to the
expiration of time, knowing we have limited opportunities to create eternal
wisdom and worth. We are encouraged to apply our hearts to wisdom; the first
step is realizing how limited time is.
Your time is your greatest resource; it can’t be purchased or saved for
future use. Its methodical progress evaporates second by second, thus who has
use of it captures the return of it. Who or what conquers your time? The world constantly
advertises to capture and utilize every second it can from you, and yet God patiently
waits and longs for your time as well, which do you relent to, worldly wealth
or wisdom’s wealth? One form of wealth
is fleeting and perishable, while the other is eternal in value. God has given you a life watch, are you
honoring Him by asking how much time you have left, or by consulting the watch and
using it to invest wisely. Don’t allow everything to use you, but God!
Don’t
be a part-time Christian in need of a full-time God!
