TIME OUT!!

"Too much to do, and too little time."
Have you heard that before? Perhaps even said it before?

Its just seems like the time flies by so quickly and then we wonder where it went.
Our children grow up right before our eyes.

~In the blink of an eye~

But why are we so busy?

I challenge you, this Sabbath day, to leave your watch on the dresser. Leave the cell phone turned off or in a pocket.
Don't check the time.
Don't even look at the clock.
Just go somewhere with your family. A park or even your backyard will work; somewhere outdoors, in nature. Just look at God's creation, all of it, which includes you by the way.
Just to spend one day with no schedule,
nowhere to go,
nowhere to be.
Just to be present.
I think that's what God wants,
For us to be present,
With Him.


"Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you." ~Carl Sandburg

  1. This is a good & timely word! Thanks, for this reminder of how precious the gift of the days we've been given is. The weather here lately has been a pretty good gift, too. Peace, ~P. Bri
