Charles Francis Adams, the 19th century political figure and diplomat, and son of John Quincy Adams and grandson of John Adams, kept a diary.  He had a superb family lineage but perhaps not always the best concept of what was worthy of his time for one day he penned: “Went fishing with my son today.  A day wasted.” 


However, his son, Brook Adams, also kept a diary, which is also still in  existence, and on that same day he made this entry, “Went fishing with my father.  The most wonderful day of my life!”


            And therein lies part of the problem.  Are we capable of judging what is worthless or worthwhile when it comes to the use of that precious commodity called time?  Do we too often misjudge what is important or not important at all?


Do we need, on a regular basis, to prayerfully run our daily schedule by the throne of grace?  A kind of godly filtering to keep our thinking straight.  A prayer something like , “Lord, help me not to waste my life and help me to know the difference” rather than foolishly frittering away precious life portions with little or no concern.

I’ve had an 83rd birthday come up and like everyone else, I asked,

“Where did the time go?” But I also ask, “And what did I do with it while it was going?”


How much more earthly time do I have left?  I have no idea, but I do know that when one is young they feel they have forever to straighten their life out.


How did scripture begin… “Be careful how you live…”


            So consider, how do you live?  Carefully with thoughtfulness - or carelessly because you couldn’t care less?
