Save the time, for the days are evil (Ephesians 5:16).
I. Text Commentary
“Should be sparingly” Here, 'save' does not mean not using it, but it refers to achieving the best effect through the most appropriate consumption. Our life is like money and has its limits. In fact, it is more limited than money. There is a risk of losing money, but there is also the possibility that it will increase. But our lives are not like that. Already from our birth, God has ordained when we will die. I too have been thinking about it all day long with my heart saddened. 'Our lives are passing by now! There will come a time when the road of life that I have been struggling with will end! I don't know when that will be or until just before that time, but the Lord's book must have written it all down... When will that be?' Like a candle burning, we are using our established lives. Some people think that they have a lot of life left and can save less because they are very healthy, but that's not the case.
II. way to save time
So how can we save time?
A Living in grace
The first is to live in grace. “Save the time,” and add meaningful words! “The years are evil” shows that the evil of the times and the wasting of time are very closely related. What did Jesus say people would do in the end times? “You will become preoccupied with vanity,” Jesus said. There will come a time when you risk your life and immerse yourself in things that are meaningless and unimportant. Now, not only young students, but also young people, even older people, are wasting their time in computer games or catching and catching, which shows just how stupid and stupid humans can be. Beloved, we need to save time, but the secret is to live in grace. If we live in grace, we know that vain things are vain.
B Focused on unique mission
Second, you need to focus on your unique mission. So, my last wish is to devote myself to what I can do and what I must do, the unique work that God has entrusted to me. And let's focus on that. I think I should be able to serve God by using all of my remaining resources there. This is the secret to saving time. A person who devotes himself hard for one mission rather than a person who touches things and dies, that person saves time That's it. The secret to saving time is to fully dedicate yourself to the unique, God-given mission focused on you.
C Received God's Blessing
The third is to receive God's blessing. For a while, I had the subject of earnest prayer every morning. “God, it is not necessary to pray for the blessings of the Obyeongfish with the material I have, but please do so with the time I have. Look up to the sky and bless me. Please help me to do many things by making the history of Oh Byeong-Eye with the 24 hours I have. Give me wisdom, and give me wisdom.” In fact, those experiences have opened many eyes to laziness. So we must have God's blessing in our time. It's amazing! When I am writing or researching something, I waste a lot of time and do not open the data. If God helps, sometimes the data rolls out on its own. It saves several hours. Then I'm incredibly happy! Not only that. Meeting people and getting advice will save you even more time. Time spent meeting such a person is not wasted.
III. Conclusion: a short life
Beloved, the length of life is not just a physical one. No matter how young you are and you have a lot of physical resources, if you have a different attitude to life, you may already have gray hair and have only a few years of life left, but you can die meaninglessly and failing to do the Lord's work much more than a person who lives wisely with God's blessings. So, don't be arrogant about your own resources, so that God raises his hands high for grace, that God bless you, pray earnestly before God and live wisely. I hope that you will become saints who glorify God more in your appointed life. . 2006-12-27
