Redeeming the Time



While cleaning the office, I found some notes from a time-management class given by Rick Grubbs in June of last year. Since I wanted to get the info recorded so I could throw out the paper, I decided to post them on my blog so you all could benefit.


Ephesians 5:14-17

-Redeem: "rescue from going to waste"

-Time: "the passing of life"


Why is it so important to redeem the time?

A. time is limited and it snowballs as you get older

B. death is certain

C. our use of time brings eternal consequences

D. time is not recoverable

E. time is our most valuable possesion

F. we must give an account


If we know what we know, why do we still do what we do?


Ways to redeem the time

A. learn to wake up and get up

B. get organized

C. identify and eliminate time-wasters

D. conquer procrastination


-Three things that last: God, His word, and people


The Real Key:

What does God want me to do right now?



On a lighter note, we have been able to feel the baby move this past week. What fun!

Hey Heather! Good reminders about redeeming the time... I'm sure we can all benefit from those. Wow, get up and stay up? :o)

What an awesome thing to feel your little one moving! SO exciting...

Yeah, we haven't quite got the getting up and staying part. We have an extra step in there, called "snuggle." This is bad for time management, but great for marriage. :D
