Oh, dear ones, I have struggled with the need for more time in my life and this message makes me "re-think my priorities"

Hope it helps you, too.


God Has Time for You
Mark 10:46-52

Because time is such a precious commodity in our fast-paced culture, it is also a tremendously valuable gift we can give someone else.

Jesus was the ultimate model of balanced time management. He demonstrated His love for mankind by being available.

Did you ever notice that there are no biblical accounts of our Lord hurrying?

You will never come across a verse saying that He "ran to Bethany" or "rushed back to Galilee." Wherever the Savior went, He was sensitive to the needs of the people around Him and reached out in love to help. He wasn't so busy that He could not be interrupted.

Right before He went to the cross to accomplish the most important work of His life, Jesus stopped to help a poor blind beggar, who was a nobody in the eyes of society.

Although the redemption of mankind was vitally important, the Lord cared enough about the suffering of one lowly individual to stop and do what He could to relieve the man's suffering.

If the Lord allowed Himself to be interrupted on the way to the cross, will He not also stop and listen when you call out to Him in your distress? He is never too busy governing the universe to hear His beloved child's cry for help.

In order to follow in Christ's footsteps, we have to ask ourselves, Am I willing to be interrupted?

We are stewards of all God gives us, including our time. Consider this precious commodity a resource to be used when reaching out in love as Christ did. Give someone your time today.
