How easy it is to waste time. There are days when my best plans seem to evaporate amidst the challenges brought before me. But, I must remind myself that I am the one who decides what to do with my time and how I will manage it. We all get 24 hours in every day and must decide how we will spend it. The wise make the best use of their time and live balanced lives, leading to happiness. Consider stepping back occasionally from what you are doing and ask yourself these questions: “Am I spending my time in the best way possible? How might God ask me to change my use of time?”
