Redeeming Your Time For His Glory by His Grace


(This picture is of my Administrative Assistant [Suzanne] who volunteers her time to help me with work in the church—redeeming her 'disposable' time wisely!)

Life is life! It is littered with innumerable trials and temptations till the end. Daily circumstances, responsibilities, and employments that tend to lead us away from loving God with all our hearts. There are people to meet, deals to get done, mouths to feed, and many cares of this life! But each one of us only has so much time till the thunderous voice of Him who will tally the accounts of our lives says, unheard to us, “You fool! This night your soul will be required of you.” Well might we take heed to the admonition of the Apostle Paul to, “walk circumspectly…redeeming the time”. If you walk as a fool Paul also has words, that “the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.” But to walk circumspectly redeeming the time is to “be filled with the Spirit of God, walking as children of light in all goodness, righteousness, and truth; giving thanks always for all things to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.” So redeem your time wisely today as you live for His glory by His grace!
