Don’t waste your life!
I love how this Scripture says to live like wise, intelligent people, “not as the unwise and witless” who don’t know what they are doing. As we take time to study God’s Word and learn what His will is, we can make choices that line up with His plans and purpose for our lives.

Make a determined decision to seize each day of your life, focused on the things God puts in your heart to do. Realize that every day that goes by is one you will never get back. Refuse to waste your time living in anger and unforgiveness or settling for a mediocre existence that lacks zeal for the call of God on your life.
Seek God in prayer and through His Word. If you need help getting started on a new track, living with purpose, pray something like this: “God, help me to do what You tell me to do in Your Word. Help me to stop walking around like a sleepy Christian and to live carefully. I want to invest my time and all of my resources in Your kingdom. Help me to seize the day and live for You!”
