If you don't manage your time, it manages you!
The day can only be just but 24 hours, just as the week will only be just but 7 days! Noone can add or subtract these fixed times.
In a given day one can only achieve so much. Wise is he who knows time management. You can sail through the day busy with all sorts of errands, and yet at the end of the day if you sit to review your progress, you may realise that there is none! You are maybe just a busy body, and not an achiever. Use your time wisely! Don't just sit there and wait impatiently in that queue, take a book and read!
Time is short. Life is brief. The Bible even says so. According to Moses, the years of our lives “quickly pass” (Psalm 90:10). As we grow older, we look back and wonder where the time has gone. Each of us is allotted a finite number of days, and the cry of our hearts is the same as Moses’; we pray that God will “establish the work of our hands” (v. 17). By the time Moses wrote Psalm 90 he was evidently an old man and had come to realize how short his time on earth would be.
Listen, a day lived can never be redeemed, it's either you do it today or never. Tomorrow is a brand new day that comes with it's own demands.
Ask God today to show you ways in which you can begin to make quality use of your time. It will be sad to die oneday and realise that you never lived!
