Scripture

1 Corinthians 7:29 …the time is short…!


Observation

Paul was talking about marriage and about whether folks should marry or not. He was discussing whether a believer married to an unbeliever should stay in the marriage and he was giving instructions based on the immorality of the times. Paul said that if you could stay single like he was that would be the best of all. Then he said that if you married it would cause more problems than if you remained single. You could serve the Lord with all your heart if you were single but if you married then you would have to also serve your spouse. Then he said, in verse 29…he said, “the time is short” and “this earth is fading away”! I wonder what Paul would say today if he was living in the United States! His statement is still true for us today, “time is short”, but I would add to his statement that we are fading away too! Our bodies are wearing out! Time is short!



Application

Time is short! What are you going to do today differently because of that fact?

Prayer

Heavenly Father, help me make good use of my time today. Guide my day today! Help me make it count for you!
