Time In My Life

20Keeping a close watch on him, they sent spies, who pretended to be honest. They hoped to catch Jesus in something he said so that they might hand him over to the power and authority of the governor. 21So the spies questioned him: "Teacher, we know that you speak and teach what is right, and that you do not show partiality but teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. 22Is it right for us to pay taxes to Caesar or not?"

23He saw through their duplicity and said to them, 24"Show me a denarius. Whose portrait and inscription are on it?"

25"Caesar's," they replied.
He said to them, "Then give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's." Luke 20:20-25

I have heard this verse many times but sometimes I get something different from it. This time, I feel that this not only refers to money, but also one's own life. My life that I give to God is because he has loved me and has given his life for me, so I give my life for him. My time is my life, my time that I give God is what I give to him. From this, I need to learn more time management so that I do not give my time to others so that my time does not interfere.

I need to still learn more time management. I pray that I be given wisdom to do so.

Lord, I pray that you are my guide. I ask the Holy Spirit to help me be more time manageable. There are so many things that interfere with everything else and I pray that learn to be able to handle everything. Thank you Lord for everything and I pray in Jesus name.
Amen.
