The Value of Time
“Our days are like beautiful summer fields as God gives them to us. The minutes are blooming flowers and silvery blades of grass and stalks of wheat with their germs of golden grains. The hours are trees with their rich foliage or vines with their blossom potentials of purple clusters. Oh the endless, blessed possibilities of the days and hours and minutes as they come to us from God’s hands! But what did you do with yesterday? How does the little acre of that one day look to you now? What are you doing with your time? Every moment God gives us has in it a possibility of beauty as well as something to be accounted for. Are we using our time for God?”

Thank you for sharing this, Joy! It blessed (and convicted) me to read. I printed it out to keep as a reminder!
J.R. Miller is always so thought provoking. It must have been really something to be in his congregation.
What a beautiful quote! Something to definitely ponder!
