Spring Forward to Action

Will the coming warm weather and official start of Spring in two weeks bring us a better economy or state of mind? The sun and the warmth over the weekend certainly was invigorating? Did you go out and have some fun even if you "lost" 1 hour of time? I took some hacks with my golf clubs, did some landscaping work, and relaxed afterwards with some lovely Chardonnay. Fun time. In Oswald Sanders' book, Spiritual Leadership, it talks about leaders who must make the most of their time. Citing Ephesians 5:16, he lays out the mathematical limits of your days (capacity) and focuses on utilitization. In our very distracting and technological progressive world, are we surprised that this generation is prone to being of short attention span? How do we alot our 16-18 hours when we are awake? I am guilty of being on Facebook more than I should...even Youtube...and as they used to say, "it is time I can never get back". Let's use the loss of 1 hour this weekend to spur us to spring ahead in better use of our time. Can you help me and help others?

Ephesians 5:15-16 Be very careful, then, how you live- not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.
