Tag: Bible verses about taking time away from busy schedules

Ecclesiastes 3:1-2 (NKJV) 1 To everything there is a season, A time for every purpose under heaven: 2 A time to be born, And a time to die; A time to plant, And a time to pluck what is planted;

Each one of us has a set time here on earth. We’re born, we live for a time and at some point we will take our last breath and be gone from here.

This is why it’s critical that we learn to make the most of each and every day we have here with our loved ones. We need to be careful that we’re not taking anyone for granted. And we need to give them the time, the love and the respect they deserve.

None of us knows when that day will come, for ourselves or for anyone else.

James 4:14 (NKJV) 14 whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.

And yet, most, if not all of us, are guilty of breezing through the days that we live and not loving our families enough.

We’re guilty of not spending time with the people that God has placed in our lives.

And we’re guilty of letting them slip away because we’re too busy with so many things that aren’t as important.

But here’s the thing. Today is a brand new day, and with each new day we have a new opportunity to start over and do our best to get it right.

So let’s let God show us where we’ve been lacking and where we might have been dropping the ball when it comes to loving, caring for and helping the people around us. And let’s make a change where God shows us we need to change.

He’s merciful and willing to give us another try. We just have to want to 🙂
