Most people don’t realize how many hours they have in a week. Sadly many excuses are brought up when challenged to how much time is spent in prayer and study of the Word of God.
Let’s do a simple breakdown here. There are 168 hours in a week. Set aside 56 hours a week for sleep (that’s 8 hours a night many only need 6), 50 hours for work/school (that’s 10 hours of overtime built in), 20 hours for getting ready and eating meals, and 15 for recreation (sports, entertainment, hobbies, etc.). That is 141 hours a week.
That leaves 27 hours a week, which is just under 4 hours a day! If someone simply “tithed” 10% of each day to the Lord that would be just under 2.5 hours a day. Yet many say they only have time to read the “verse of the day” or listen to a quick 3 min YouTube message… people have no attention span now, they want their Jesus served up quick, hot and the way they like Him… they don’t know the Lord, and the day is coming when He will say “I never knew you; depart from Me”
What we do with our time shows what and in this case Who is most important to us!
