Time for the Family


    When you’re deep in Lego blocks and diapers, it seems like you are going to have children forever! But the time of man, like the Psalmist says, is lke a flower that blooms one day and is gone the next. And the time of childhood seems even shorter; our time with them is gone so quickly.

    One wise woman told us, “Have children only if you want to share your life with them. If you don’t think they are going to be the best people in the world to spend your time with, then don’t have them. There are other things you could do.”

    Your time is the most precious gift you could give your children. Their time with you is a precious memory…if you use the time wisely. Don’t allow your life to become so frantic or weary that you shortchange either them or yourself.

    So let’s make the rest of the day a little better. Stop and take time—make the time—as a gift to your family. It’s the most precious gift you can give!
