Although we may be going to the Scriptures to learn how to respond to our adversities, we find those adversities in turn help us to understand the Scriptures. It is not that we will learn from adversity something different than what we can learn from the Scriptures. Rather, adversity enhances the teaching of God’s Word and makes it more profitable to us. In some instances it clarifies our understanding or causes us to see truths we had passed over before. At other times it will transform “head knowledge” into “heart knowledge” as theological theory becomes a reality to us.

Time Spent

Live life one day at a time.
For it seems that when we are young,
it is all an uphill climb.

But when we get to the top,
we are gravely disappointed.

Because it is the little things in life that matter:
Time spent with family and friends,
and being there for one another.
And time is one thing we cannot take back.

I think that as a society, we are in such
a hurry to achieve all our goals
that we miss out on the one thing
we should conserve and treasure:

TIME.

Before we know it, our time is up.
It could be any day, any hour, any minute.
It could be expected or unexpected.

Have you spent your time wisely?

Have a Blessed Day
