"Redeeming the time." What a responsibility! What are we doing with our time,
our spare hours?
Do we invest it for God or use it for selfish pursuits that don't
count? Somehow we seem to have time for everything else in the world, time to eat
and time to sleep, time to shop and time to talk, time for the newspaper and time
for our visitors, time for pleasure and time for work, but no time for God.

Do we
spend our time entertaining our friends, providing expensive dinner parties, and
whiling away the hours in idle talk? Or, do we live as pilgrims and act like
sojourners?

Are we different from the world? Let us begin right now to practise
what we sing

'All for Jesus! all for Jesus!'
'All my days and all my hours'
