Time

Time. . .
probably once of the most precious things we have. One of the best gifts to give or receive is someone elses time spent with us.

Think of all the things you spend time doing in one day . . . in one week. . . in one month. . . or one year.
how often you see or talk to some people, how often you eat, how often you sleep, how often you study, how much time you spend in class or in meetings, how much time you work. How much time do you spend on you? How much time do you need? and then how much time do you spend with God? The most important thing though is NOT quantity but quaility. Especially during finals and holidays we all get stressed and tired. Remember to schedule sometime for you and God everyday. When you take the time to slow down and look around God has a million and two miracles right under your eyes. It is a beautiful world and full of wonderful things to see and do.

The other thing i wanted to touch an alittle bit is patience. Or God's time. . can be kind of hard to wait for, but patience is a virtue and as hard as it may be, it can't be rushed. The holidays are a hard time to be patient. To see old friends, to get home, to be done with semester. . . a lot. The first advent candle was lited last week sunday representing patience. Here is a verse to hopefully help alittle bit. . .

Psalm 62:7-9
7 My salvation and my honor depend on God
he is my mighty rock, my refuge.
8 Trust in him at all times, O people;
pour out your hearts to him,
for God is our refuge.

God Bless you,
