To My Children - 3

So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. (Psalm 90:12 KJV)

Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. (Ephesians 5:15-16 ESV)

I have spoken on things and events, the two types of things and two types of events. Now I want to talk about time.

Our time is limited and evil (Psalm 90:9-10). It is a one way street going towards death. We should use it wisely.

Invest your time in things that you can take beyond the grave. To live beyond death, you need eternal life. To have eternal life, God must know you and you must know God. To know God, you must do His will. To do His will, you must first know His will. To know His will, you must know His Word. Therefore, invest your time in reading the Bible. Then you will know His will. Then you can do His will. Then you can know God. Then you can have eternal life.

And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. (John 17:3 ESV)
