As you rush about your duties, sometimes feeling almost overwhelmed with the cares and burdens of life, maybe it would be good for you to take a "coffee break" and ponder a little while on these sobering questions ---
"What if God couldn't take time to bless us today because we couldn't take time to thank Him yesterday"?
"What if God decided to stop leading us tomorrow because we did not follow Him today"?
"What if we never saw another flower bloom because we grumbled when God sent the rain"?
"What if God didn't walk with us today because we failed to recognize it as His day"?
"What if God took away the Bible tomorrow because we would not read it today"?
"What if God took away His message because we failed to listen to His messenger"?
Let us remember the admonition of this lovely song by William Longstaff --
"Take time to be holy; be calm in thy soul -- each thought and each motive beneath His control." And let us also remember the admonition given in this little quote -- "If your day is hemmed with prayer, it is less likely to unravel."
