Time Well Spent



         
        Time Well Spent

What does it really mean, Time well spent??
Baking a cake or cookies and looking up new treats to invent?
Go clean your truck and make it look great and shiny?
Or better yet, please everyone so as to have no one whiny?

You say time well spent is staying busy and doing it well.
As important as it is, I still have a problem with that; anyone can stay busy and answer their cell.
Awe, you say helping out a friend and making sure he’s happy and content.
Oops, it’s wrong again, it has nothing to do with you and your friend’s commitment!
 
We way to often try and do all these good and encouraging things,
And way too often it’s become a thing you do for the benefit to give you wings.
It’s good to bake, clean, encourage, and stay busy in your life,
But the question is why and for whom is it that you live your life with such strife?
 
I’ve come to realize that we’re here on this earth to further God’s Kingdom,
To praise, glorify, and bring honor to His name by living in His wisdom.
Time well spent can be doing the simplest thing or the hardest thing,
As long as your heart’s motive is doing what you do to worship the king.
