Waste of Time

Sep 9
1 min read

The only thing that we have that we really can’t get more of is … time. It is important to use it wisely.


You’ve heard that, right?


If we know this, then why do we waste it on holding grudges and being unforgiving?


I wake up every morning, not getting any younger. I wake up with the same amount of time that I had the day before. How will I do things differently today in a way that pleases the Lord and doesn’t waste time on the things that are not helpful to me or others?


We are instructed in the scriptures to forgive. Why don’t you do that? Quit being stubborn. You may say, “But Paula, you don’t know what they did and how it hurt me!” I didn’t notice any exceptions listed in what He said. It even says if you want forgiveness… you must be forgiving of other people’s wrongs.


Make that decision today to stop wasting your time on being unforgiving. That will free you up to use your time in love.


Matthew 6:14 ERV

Yes, if you forgive others for the wrongs they do to you, then your Father in heaven will also forgive your wrongs. #paulaandthebible #helpforyourdailywalk
