What's important

It is hard to imagine that June is over. Summer is nearing the half way point. Where is the time going? I often ask that question, but I should now the answer. Time is one of the most valuable things that we have...and it is wasted over and over again. I know that there are days that I need to sit on the couch and simply relax. But somehow the "days" have become "months" and time slips away. Things that were once important have now been replaced by things of lesser importance. Where has all the time gone? Somehow I have to return to doing and being about what is important. I have to allocate my time to these important things. I can no longer wonder where it has gone. Being and doing the things that I know I have been "called" to do should be a priority. Being a good husband and father should be the top of the list. Then I can put time into seeing the community that I am a part of look a little more like heaven. I really think the two go together though. If I am loving my wife and my kids...hopefully others will follow and the Kingdom restored can be a reality here in Grand Haven. This is important and I should put some time towards it.
