Numbering our days

What is your focus on? What are your priorities?

Check your heart.

What is your heart set on? I mean really...what do you place all your hopes and trust in?

Check where you spend most of your time.

I'm preaching to myself right here, because I spend FAR too much time on the internet. Not enough time in my Word or with HIM. Not good enough.

TV is not the problem. I don't watch alot of TV, maybe less than 20 hours a week, most of that being football so it's less during other sports seasons. But then I don't spend time developing the gifts God has given me, or working towards the assignment God has called me to. I waste too much time. I confide in you all for two reasons: 1) To be transparent and 2) for you all to hold me accountable. I'm called to lead, and I'm supposed to be writing books, seriously y'all. I'm a writer. Thats what I do. And how many chapters of a book do I have written?

One. Yup, just one. I've gotta do better.

I love what Psalms 90:12 says: So teach us to number our days, That we may present to You a heart of wisdom.

I want God to teach me to number my days correctly, so that I won't end everyday thinking, "I don't have enough time." That's actually far from true. God gave us just enough time in a day, 24 hours...having priorities in check can lead to more productive and fruitful time and having more than enough time for everything.

Many of us made new years resolutions or made promises that this year would be different. Well, is your strategy different? Most of us, our goals are not reached due to TWO main factors: Time and MONEY. If we learn to manage both well, we'd be well on our way. We do not have control over everything, but that which we are in control of, let us be good stewards over it!

Lord, teach us to number our days...
