God’s greatest gift to you is Jesus. His second greatest gift is time. Every second we have life is a gift from God.
Has it ever occurred to you that for you to cease living, God would not have to take your life? All God would have to do is stop giving you life.
Your time is in His hands. You are a steward of the time He has given you. We have 86,000 seconds in our day…no more, no less. The difference is stewardship.
Today is check-up day. How are you redeeming your 86,000 seconds each day? Are you spending them to the glory of God? And are you lagging behind God or running ahead of Him?
I try to unplug each morning with Jesus with just my rocking chair, my Bible, and a pen.
Having a secret place is very important because I know that Jesus is always there waiting for me. I know where I can find Him! His presence is everywhere, but there are places where it is so thick you can cut it with a knife. You may not even have a front porch, but there is a secret place for you as well. God’s invitations are for anyone who will respond. There is no more important request than the one found in Psalm 27:8: “My heart has heard You say, ‘Come and talk with Me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”
