Plenty of Time

For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven.
Ecclesiastes 3:1 NLT

I know we've been in Ecclesiastes 3 on several occasions this month. There's something about time that we need to understand. As we hurtle headlong into the end of time, it's the dichotomy of not having enough time to do everything we need/want to do and having all the time in the world. 

God tells us there is time for everything. He created time measurements for us; there is no time pressure or constraint on Him. He tells us in Isaiah 46:9 and 10, that He is God and there is no other like Him, making known end-times things from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that have not yet happened, saying, My counsel, purpose, plan shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure... 

Notice He says HIS plan and purpose and He will do all HIS pleasure, not ours. HE has plenty of time to accomplish His will. Do we? What will we do with the time we have remaining?

Prayer:

Father,

          We know that all things can change in the twinkling of an eye. Help us to understand the reality of that. Help us to be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in Your work, Lord, knowing that our labor is not in vain in You. Give us wisdom and understanding in how we are to redeem the time. In Jesus' Name we pray. Amen
