There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven:
A time to be born and a time to die,
A time to plant and a time to uproot,
A time to kill and a time to heal,
A time to tear down and a time to build,
A time to weep and a time to laugh,
A time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
A time to embrace and a time to refrain,
A time to search and a time to give up,
A time to keep and a time to throw away,
A time to tear and a time to mend,
A time to be silent and a time to speak,
… there will be a time for every activity, a time for every deed.
This excerpt from Ecclesiastes 3 is one of my favorites in the bible.
There’s always time. Time is going to happen (whether you like it or not). We always have time. If something happens to someone we love, we make time. We find time, we make them important.
We don’t have time to do everything, only time to do what matters.
What matters to you? Where do you want to focus your time? Who deserves your undivided attention?
There’s always time … where do you need to focus your time today?
