Time.

What a precious gift we all have each and every day. Unfortunately, not all of us are waking up to a day that we’re grateful for. To age is a beautiful thing, but to age without hope is something different.

We all have the same 24 hours in a day. It’s how we use that time determines the hope within each of us.

Giving is the one thing that we, as Christians, should be all about. The most precious gift given to everyone is the gift of time.

Although we’re not promised tomorrow, today is a good day to visit a loved one, someone in the nursing home, or a friend you haven’t seen in many months or years.

Through giving of our time, talent, and even money, we can partner with something bigger than ourselves.

When you give, you receive. The primary way God gives to us is when we give to others. It’s upside down from how the world thinks, but it works! 

Offer your time to others. What does that look like? Do you have specific ways of doing this?

You have no idea how precious time is until there’s no time left.

Got time? Go use it for God’s purposes.

Luke 6:30-31 - “Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. Do to others as you would have them do to you.”
