Time

For everything there is a season and a time for every matter under heaven. Ecclesiastes 3:1 

I have enjoyed watching the curling games at the winter Olympics. The players have so much to think about from the rolling of the stone, the positioning of the stone, the strategies to consider with the opponent’s stones, and the possibilities of multiple stone hits. I learned this year that the teams have a set number of minutes (38) during the match for "time to think". It seems important to take time to view the situation, discuss the options, communicate, and make a plan. They must use their time wisely to make sure they have enough time to do this by the end of the game.

This made me consider my time to think about God. This could be in reading the Bible, pondering a devotion daily, attending a Bible study, participating in worship services, praying, and thanking God throughout the day for His blessings. Like the curling players, there is much to consider in every situation. Take the time today to think about God.

Prayer: Heavenly Father help us to take time to think about you every day. Help us remember your abundance of love for us and your promises to stay by us in all situations. Amen
