Time
Jesus said, "The time has come, and God's Kingdom is near. Change the way you think and act, and believe the Good News."
Mark 1:15
Our time on Earth is given by God and has an eternal value.
We partner with God as we are led to use our time wisely to benefit our families, our friends and our neighbours, in our homes, in our social connections and in our communities.
Ecclesiastes 3:11 says God has made everything beautiful in its time and has set eternity in the human heart. This Godly perspective encourages us to appreciate that what we do with our time has an eternal value.
