Are You Well Spent?

Are You Well Spent?

“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” Galatians 6:9 NIV

Almost everyone is value conscious and strives to see that their money, time and talents are well spent. To some, anything spent in pursuit of pleasure and gratification of any kind is well spent. Many find the time spent in developing their talents is too demanding and they find other things that they would rather be doing, much to their sorrow later. When it’s furnace stoking time in glory we are all going to find out

Almost everyone will agree that time spent with family is time well spent. When we invest in our children’s future by spending time with them when they are young, we will most likely be rewarded with their love and good character when they are older.

Time spent studying is time well spent at exam time, or, as in the case of studying the Word of God, when testing comes. Salvation is a free gift of God’s grace through faith in Jesus Christ.
Our heavenly home is assured. But there is coming a day when we are going to be called to give an account of how we have spent our lives.

The idea that we will be rewarded beyond salvation for well spent lives is an idea full of conjecture; but Scripture does mention rewards and blessings that we will receive at the resurrection of the just.

how well spent our lives have been. When all of the trivial pursuits and chasing after the wind endeavors have burned away, what’s left is going to define whether we have lived well spent lives. May we all seek to live lives well spent and fully pleasing to God. Father, keep me ever mindful that my life is not my own, that You created me for Your good purposes and for Your glory. In Jesus’ name, Amen


Have a Blessed Day!
