TOPIC: Time

"How long will you lie there, you sluggard?
    When will you get up from your sleep?
A little sleep, a little slumber,
    a little folding of the hands to rest—
and poverty will come on you like a thief
    and scarcity like an armed man" - Proverbs 6:9-11.

This month you have studied principles to help you manage your time, or manage the events that fill the time you have. Now it's up to you to apply those principles so that you can do the things that are in your heart to do. No one can make you do this; you must do it for yourself. Otherwise time will pass you by and your best intentions will remain unfulfilled and untouched. What are your main 'takeaways' from this month's discussion? What changes will you make? What are your main objectives you want to achieve with your improved time management skills? Where will you place the urgency in your life and work?

Lord, I thank You for your help this month as I have addressed my need for time management training. Now help me apply the principles as I seek to improve. I want to be productive and fulfilled, and I know that comes from You and from my diligence in pursuing Your will. I commit my way to You and ask Your help. Amen.
