7 Days x 24 Hours = 168 total hours in a week.
How do you spend your time?
1 Cor. 7:29 - "What I mean, brothers, is that time is short..."
Part of being disciplined is knowing where your time goes. I challenge you to account for your time this week. You will most likely find several areas you can put to better use (be more effecient or effective in your tasks, be more intentional in ministry, give God more time, etc.).
I can't very well challenge you to do something if I'm not willing to do it myself...so here's how my last week was spent:
Sleeping - 46hrs
In class/lab - 26hrs
At work - 24hrs
Studying - 16hrs
Doing BYX stuff - 11hrs
Working out/basketball - 8hrs
Orientation at hospital - 8hrs
At Church/GE - 7hrs
Prayer/Bible - 7hrs
Eating - 7hrs
Playing Halo3/chillaxin' - 4hrs
Writing blogs - 2hrs
Facebook/AIM - 2hrs
It would be easy to look at this and get discouraged at the lack of time spent on "important" stuff like church, God time, etc. However, every single activity or responsibility of your week is an opportunity to be intentional with your life and your ministry. Make the most of the hours you're given (the average person only gets 648,240 of them.) Live your life on a mission.
Be blessed...
