We live each day as God gives it to us. We cannot rush into tomorrow before it arrives, nor can we relive yesterday, which has already passed. Based on what He has written in the Scriptures, God knows we think a lot about our time. Here are a few passages to meditate on concerning your time and how to use it well:
Psalm 90:12 “So teach us to number our days, that we may present to You a heart of wisdom.”
Ecclesiastes 3:1 “There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven.”
Ephesians 5:15-16 “Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, making the most of your time, because the days are evil.”
Proverbs 6:6-8 Go to the ant, O sluggard, observe her ways and be wise, which, having no chief, officer, or ruler, prepares her food in the summer and gathers her provision in the harvest.”
Proverbs 27:1 “Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring forth.”
Matthew 6:33-34 “But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 “The conclusion, when all has been heard, is: fear God and keep His commandments, because this applies to every person. For God will bring every act to judgment, everything which is hidden, whether it is good or evil.”
Live each day as God gives it and live it wisely in preparation for eternity by obeying His word. If you live in submission to God, then you have hope beyond whatever comes into your life today or tomorrow. Live for God and look forward to eternity!
