If you think about it, you’ll realize that how well you manage your time is critical to completing your mission. It’s important to effectively manage your time. We are not only stewards of our talents and resources, but also of our time. Ephesians 5:16 reminds us to take advantage of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Time management is more than just being productive; it is about aligning our priorities with God’s will and using our time wisely to advance His kingdom. Prioritizing tasks and activities that are relevant to your mission increases your chances of success.
For a mission-driven person like you, time management is more than just staying on top of your schedule. It’s not about ticking boxes as you finish your tasks. It is about understanding your times and seasons. Having a clear understanding of the purpose assigned to your current situation by heaven. Proper time management entails understanding that you should thoroughly study your boss because, in the next season of life, you will be the boss and must have mastered the craft. Proper time management entails enrolling in a three-year training programme today because you recognise that the demands of the future require it.
Don’t just strive to make the most of your hours; make the most of your entire year. Time management is ultimately about stewardship. When you understand that you must account for your time, you will seek guidance and wisdom in how you spend your days, years, and decades. Let us prioritize activities that are consistent with our mission and bring glory to God, knowing that our efforts are not in vain. With proper time management, we can be effective stewards of the time we’ve been given, leaving a lasting impression on the world around us.
