Don't Have Time To Witness? "God does not use dead tools to perform living miracles."
Every man has exactly the same amount of time as any other man. There are 168 hours in a week. 730 hours in a month; 8760 hours in a year; 613,200 hours in a 70 year life span.
How does the 168 hours in a week break down? Lets say you sleep 8 hours per day 7 days per week; thats 56 of those hours. Lets say then that you spend 10 hours eating (more or less). Then lets say you spend 7 hours dressing. And lets add another 14 hours driving. Plus, of course, you work 40 hours each week.
That adds up to 127 hours of the 168, so that leaves 41 hours! OK, then 2 hours at Church Sunday Morning (Or Sat. for some) and 2 more hours Sunday night. Then lets say 2 more hours for mid week
services. That still leaves 35 hours!!!
Well what if we TITHED our time as well as our money? Say 10% of 168 hours is 16.8 or rounded off to 17! What could you accomplish if you gave 17 hours per week to Jesus?
What if 100 people at your Church gave 17 hours per week? You suppose that Church would grow? That would be 1700 hours in service to Jesus! Do you think, maybe 1 soul could be won in 1700 hours of
service?
What if you gave just 1 of those hours in service to this "family" here? What if you gave just 1 hour each WEEK (not day) and came in here and posted prayers and messages of encouragement? You think this family would grow in numbers and LOVE and in a spiritual sense?
You think maybe just 1 person might get saved in the course of a year from such dedication, either directly or indirectly? Just one? Wouldn't it be worth it?
Ephesians 5:16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
Colossians 4:5 Walk in wisdom toward them that are without, redeeming the time.
Father, help us to walk in widom, redeeming the precious gift of time, for Your Glory and Honor! Amen!
