MINUTES

As you age, the minutes seem to speed up.  The days go by and before you know it, you are suddenly an elderly person.  When you were a teenager, the minutes went by so slowly.  You thought you would never be married, have a family, and be out on your own.  You may ask Me, "Lord, have you shortened the minutes or are they spinning faster and faster by me?

The answer is simple.  I have not shortened the span of a minute, but you see your days differently as you age.  Everything in your body slows down as you age, but the minutes seem to flee by you.  My servant Moses wrote, "Teach us to number our days that we might apply our hearts to wisdom."  This is very good counsel.

Give your minutes to Me.  There is still much kingdom work to do.  Look at each moment as a time to recognize My presence with you.  Take the moments and release them to Me.  Commit to Me the works that you have planned for the day, and I will redeem your moments.  You will find that you have enough time to do everything that I have planned for you to accomplish.  The clock is ticking, but My grace is pouring through every moment of your life.  My grace is the supernatural power to do what is naturally impossible.
