A time to meditate

When I was reading the scripture found in Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven; A time to be born, a time to die, a time to plant, a time to pluck up that which is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and at time to build up; a time to weep, and at time to laugh; and at time to mourn and a time to dance."

I would add to that list a time to meditate as well. There are times when you need to be still and plan your day. Here are a few suggestions I read in an article.

Suggestions for planning a day:

         1. Set aside a quiet, prayerful time each morning for planning.

         2. Focus on what you need to do that day.

         3. Write what you need to do on a task list.

         4. Prioritize your list.

         5. Use your time wisely to accomplish the most important items.

 Points to Ponder

         •What are the top 10 priorities in your life?

•In what ways are worthwhile goals important in achieving eternal life?

•In what ways can you better manage your time?

         •What are some less-important activities that consume too much of your time?

        •Why is the wise use of time an eternal concern?
