Spending time searching for something that we’ve lost is very common in this modern age. However, there is an important item that we can lose very easily and, search as we might, we will never find again. That item is time. Benjamin Franklin said, “Lost time is never found again.” Our life is made up of time. We must rest, work, play and live in balance. It is the wasted time spent in mindless endeavors that threaten us the most.

The Bible tells us there is a time for everything under the sun (Ecclesiastes 3:1). It also tells us to put all of our might and effort into doing the things our hands find to do (Ecclesiastes 9:10). When we are good stewards of this wonderful gift of time, we will have fewer regrets and many more moments of pleasure. Use your time wisely.
