TIME AND EFFORT

Ephesians 5:16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. (NIV)

You probably have heard someone said "it will change with time" but that's not true. Nothing changes with time without effort. It is the effort you put in that bring about change in the course of time. Time produces result through effort. Time doesn't produce results on it own.

Our theme scripture says "redeeming the time", to redeem means to exchange. Simply put "exchanging the time." Exchange your time for value. Everyone has the same allotted time each day and each year yet not everyone exchange their time for something valuable. Some play games with their time, some plan against others with their time, some criticize with their time, some complain, some hate, some plan, some invest, so on and on. 

Time only give back to you what you put in. And it takes effort to put in. Time is like a plain land that only bring forth what you sow into it. If you are not sowing into your time, you are of course wasting your time. Don't assume that things will change in your life with time. No! It won't. It is the effort you put in through the course of time that will cause a change for you. 

In order for a meaningful result to happen time and effort must go together. Effort alone can't produce result either. Your effort needs time. If you have put much effort into whatever you are doing and there hasn't been changes, don't despair, give yourself some time. Add a timescale to your effort, it is necessary to seeing results.

PRAYER

Precious Father I make the most of every time through my efforts. I redeem and exchange my time for value through the wisdom of the Word. My time and effort are producing tremendous results for me, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
