Devotional
You most likely learnt the poem, “Tick says the clock“ while you were just a young child. A major lesson from the poem is the importance of making the most of every moment.
Every second counts. We often think we have all the time in the world, but the reality is that our time is limited. Time moves forward, no matter what we are doing with it. The clock doesn’t stop, and it’s easy to waste time waiting for the "big moments" in life. The big moments are shaped by how we live in the small, everyday moments.
God wants us to make the most of each moment. Sometimes we think "making the most" means doing something, but it also means being present, doing the little things well, and making wise choices today that set us up for the future.
Each day you live with purpose and intention brings you one step closer to "getting there," wherever that may be for you. The key is to trust God's timing and to use the time you have wisely.
Set small, achievable goals for yourself. Each goal you reach is a moment closer to your future dreams. Limit distractions such as endless scrolling on social media. They will only waste the precious time you have.
Tick says the clock, but it’s up to you to decide how to spend each tick..
Here are a few reflective questions:
- How do I currently manage my time?
- What changes can I make to prioritize what truly matters?
Let Us Pray:
Dear God, thank You for the gift of time. Help me to make the most of each moment, living with purpose and intention. Teach me to value the time I have and to use it in ways that honor You. Amen.
Please say these words of affirmation after me. Say them, mean them, own them and live them:
- God knows when I will get there
- I appreciate every tick of the clock.
- I manage my time wisely, aligning my actions with my purpose and goals.
- I use my time intentionally, focusing on what matters most to me.
Do have a pleasant day making the most of every tick, lovelies. I’ll see you tomorrow.
