Time
By Jesse Jenkins
Benchley, August 17, 2008
  • Psalms 9:1 – God is eternal
  • Each has all the time there is.
    • 8760 hours per year
    • 525,600 minutes per year
  • Properly used, we can have time for:
    • God
    • Family
    • Work to provide for our own
    • Others
    • Leisure
  • In the way we use our time, we are laying up treasure somewhere.
  • We must redeem the time.
    • Time is now, use it for:
      • God, family, brethren, others
      • Counting your blessings
  • We waste too much time by letting time slip away.
    • What can we do in one minute?
      • Pray
      • Read five to ten verses
      • Call to encourage someone
      • Say, “I love you.”
  • Time is brief and uncertain.
  • Busy people are the only ones who make time to serve.
    • Look at what Paul accomplished in less than thirty years.
    • Look at what Jesus accomplished in three years.
    • The only ones Jesus ever called to serve were busy people.
      • Peter and Andrew, James and John
      • Matthew
    • Ecclesiastes 9:10
  • Time properly used will include time for rest.
    • Mark 6:31 – Jesus commands rest for the disciples.
    • Matthew 14:23 – Even Jesus needed some quiet time alone.
