It’s About Time!

Leave a comment

While there is a season for everything and “a time to every purpose under heaven” (Ecclesiastes 3:1), God has entrusted us to use what He has given us in a beautiful, purposeful manner.

Time is expensive, for it is the one resource we can use but can never get back, grow back, or buy back. As quickly as the second hand marches in its nonstop rotation around the clock, that moment has passed—then another, and another.

With each second of time, we are given a beautiful offering in this life to do something positive and purposeful. With each second granted, there are possibilities. Opportunities stand before us, if only we will take the time to recognize them.

“So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom” (Psalm 90:12), the psalmist proclaimed. Taking inventory of our time and delegating each portion with intentional purpose helps us use the gift of these twenty-four hours in a way that not only honors the God who gave us time, but also reflects our care in stewarding it well.

Will all our time be ordered with busyness and tasks? No. Ecclesiastes reminds us that life consists of seasons—times of action and times of rest, moments to allow the varying experiences we face to unfold as they must.

Yet as the second hand continues to turn, I recognize the precious gift given to me in this moment—and in those that follow. With that recognition comes a desire to be more mindful and aware of how I use my time.

Time, in and of itself, is beautiful to have and to experience. Experience it well, my friend. Use it wisely, and you will never regret a single second you have spent.

Blessings to you~

asking God in prayer with faith

ASK!

1 Comment

Ask.
There are many times, and for many reasons, I do not deserve the ask. To be hushed, to have the privilege revoked, would be justified.

Ask.
Yet God welcomes it. He ushers me into His Word, where I find testimony upon testimony revealing how often the want was simply the asking.

There are grievous things in this life—things heavy to bear. And while we are not promised exemption from trials or woes, He still understands and welcomes the ask for relief.

There are heart-stirring aspirations that awaken good desires within us. How to get there, how to set it all in motion—ask. God is all too pleased to offer guidance to a truly searching heart.

Asking allows us to bring everything—from the hurtful to the joyful—and seek His thoughts, His face, His glory in it all. After all, it is God’s will we ultimately desire to be accomplished in our lives.

Your ask draws you closer to Him through seeking.
Your ask establishes God as rule one in whatever your heart longs for.
Your ask says, “God, I need You.”

Oh, how the Heavenly Father delights in the faith of a child who comes to Him willingly and openly. Do not let fear or doubt withhold your ask. Asking is a privilege the Father has blessed us with—one He longs for you to use today.

“Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you” (Matthew 7:7).

“Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us” (Ephesians 3:20).

“But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed” (James 1:6).

“If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you” (John 15:7).

Your ask speaks of position.
Your ask speaks of His power.
Your ask speaks of faith.
Your ask speaks of relationship with the Father.

Therefore, my friend—ask.

Blessings to you today~
