Time

 

Imagine there is a bank that credits your account each morning with $86,400.  It carries over no balance from day to day.  Every evening deletes whatever part of the balance you failed to use during the day.  What would you do?  Draw out all of it, of Course!!

Each of us has such a bank.  Its name is TIME.  Every morning, it credits you with 86,400 seconds.  Every night it writes off, as lost, whatever of this you failed to invest to good purpose.  It carries over no balance.  It allows no overdraft.  Each day it opens a new account for you.  Each night it burns the remains of the day.  If you fail to use the day's deposits, the loss is yours.  There is no going back.  There is no drawing against "tomorrow".  You must live in the present on today's deposits.  Invest it so as to get from it the utmost in health, happiness, and success!  The clock is running.  Make the most of today.

To realize the value of ONE YEAR, ask a student who failed a grade.

To realize the value of ONE MONTH, ask a mother who gave birth to a premature baby.

To realize the value of ONE WEEK, ask the editor of a weekly newspaper.

To realize the value of ONE HOUR, ask the person waiting to meet that special someone.

To relalize the value of ONE MINUTE, ask the person who missed the train.

To realize the value of ONE SECOND, ask the person who just avoided an accident.

To realize the value of ONE MILLISECOND, ask the person who won a silver medal in the Olympics.

Try to treasure every moment that you have!  And treasure it more because you share it with someone special, special enough to spend your time.  Remember that time waits for no one.  Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery.

Consider... only what is done for Christ will last!!
