Time.

Time is something I have yet to figure out. I feel like I have this unlimited supply of it stored somewhere and I can drain from it whenever I want like an ATM. Why though? Why do I feel like I can use and abuse this gift, this present the Lord graciously gives me with every passing second? I have found this taking time for granted to be a chronic problem in my life, and as I am sitting in the library about to finish yet another semester of college, I'm wondering what I have done with the past three years of my life? Can I honestly say that I have used that timely wisely, or worse, used it for the Lord and the furthering of His kingdom? I would love to answer yes, but it wouldn't be honest. I take days, hours, minutes and seconds for granted every single day and it never occurs to me until so much time has passed I feel like I can't do anything about it. Then I stop. I take a breath. And in an instant I am reminded of the Lord's goodness, and His ability to forgive me and forget my wastefulness. He just stands there with His arms wide open and tells me to get up, dust myself off, and try again. I can handle this time thing God, I just have to give it all to you. That is the only way to truly use it anyway, right? I need more time to look like you, and help this world do the same. What's mine is yours, so take my time. Consume all of it and be stingy with it. I don't want to waste any more of it. Thanks for second chances.
