1 Chronicles 22:1-23:32; Ezekiel 20:45-21:32; John 7:31-8:11
Walk in wisdom…redeeming the time. Colossians 4:5
Malcolm Muggeridge was a journalist, soldier and British spy. He was committed to communism and went to live in Russia. After the war, he converted to Christianity and wrote his autobiography, a book entitled “The Chronicles of Wasted Time”. Much emphasis today is placed on eliminating waste for the good of our environment. Christians should also strive to not waste time. The expression “life is too short” is a common phrase to emphasise the need to make every moment count. One day we will give account of what we have done with the time God has given us.
What will we say? —Brian Powlesland
Oh, the years of sinning wasted; could I but recall them now,
I would give them to my Saviour, to His will I’d gladly bow. —Charles Carroll Luther
