This evening I was talking to a friend and realized that I leave in 32 days....we might as well say a month. As expected, summer has flown by, and several of the things on my "to do" list have not exactly gotten done, and several things have gotten pushed to the side. To me, how you spend your time is a reflection of what you truly value in life. Looking back over summer thus far, I feel much time was wasted. In this case, wasted time means placing value on things that do not matter (or should not be my focus). There were some great things accomplished and some lives changed, but so much more could have been done if I was more focused on things beyond myself.
My prayer for all of you and myself as I prepare to leave for Uganda is this: Let us set our minds attention and our hearts affection on Christ.
Time with the Lord is never time wasted, but valued.
