"Time is short. What is your life?, its even a vapour that appeareth for a little time and then vanisheth away. If someone had told me when i was 20 years old that life was very short and would pass just like that i wouldn't have believed it. And if i tell you that you don't believe it either, I can not get young people to understand how brief life is. How quickly it passes. It seems like yesterday.
I was in school everyone of us here has been given this same amount of time in a day, 1440 minutes a day, 168 hours per week, 70 years god allows us. And its interesting to me with all of our medical science we've never passed that magic mark. The average american male today lives 70 years and 4 months the average female 73 years and 6 months. More people live to be 70. But the average age of an american is still 70 as tough in the scriptures.
What a thing it is when you think that you have just one short life to spend and it will soon be over. I'd write down my priorities in life and i'd get committed to certain priorities. Now is the accepted time the things we ought to do, the classes we ought to take, the books we ought to read, do it now. The family that needs you spend more time, now, write that letter home, now that you've been meaning to write. Money you ought to give, give now, time for study, do it now, people you ought to witness to, do it now, every-time the clock ticks it seems to say now. Today, if you will hear his voice, there may not be a tomorrow for you and for me because there's a warning to time. Time is running out for all of us. Time is too short for indecision and vacillation. Do not halt between two opinions, fools say that time is long. Every morning we have 86,400 seconds to spend and invest and each day the bank named time opens a new account for you and for me. It allows no balances and no overdrafts. If you fail to use the days deposits the loss is yours.
The bible says redeem the time because the days are evil and the days in which we are living are very evil. If there was ever a time for the gospel that can transform the human heart, it's now. Jesus said long as it is day we must do the work of him that sent us the night is coming when no man can work. The night is going to come in your life yet there was a serenity about the work of the lord Jesus. Its the quality of life not the length. Jesus only had 33 years and it ended on the cross. To the world he was a failure at that moment yet at the end of his life he said i finished the work that thou gavest me to do. It doesn't matter weather you live another year or two years or five years,
will your work be finished?
Is there a quality to it?
Is there a dedication to it?
Suppose all of our members tithe there time to witness for Christ as we tithe our income for the church. Fill your heart with the word of god I found that those who know the scriptures are the ones that have the power today. But we need men and women who walk with god and if you do that you too can finish the work that god gave you to do. And help us to realize the brevity and the urgency of time and my we invest what little time we have in the kingdom of god."
