Monday Encouragement — Redeeming the Time

Blessings, dear brothers and sisters in Christ.

It is remarkable how quickly this year is passing. Another month is ending, and it seems only yesterday that we began this year wondering what the months ahead would bring.

At the same time, world events appear to become more extreme with each passing day. Wars and conflicts continue, natural disasters bring suffering, political and economic uncertainty trouble nations, and changes in our society seem to come faster than we can comprehend them.

Yet none of this should cause the child of God to lose hope.

While the world changes rapidly, our sovereign God never changes. He is not surprised by today’s events, nor is He uncertain about tomorrow. History is not moving beyond His control. Every nation and every generation remains under His sovereign authority.

“For I am the LORD, I change not.” — Malachi 3:6

The speed with which this year is passing should also remind us of something very personal: our time is precious.

God has given each of us a limited number of days to serve Him. We cannot recover yesterday, and none of us is promised tomorrow. But by God’s grace, we have been given today.

Scripture therefore tells us:

“See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.” — Ephesians 5:15–16

So perhaps the question for us this Monday is not simply, “What will happen in the world this week?”

A better question is:

“Lord, how would You have me serve You today?”

There are people who need encouragement. There are believers who need strengthening. There are suffering people who need compassion. There are men and women who still need to hear the saving Gospel of Jesus Christ.

We cannot solve every problem confronting this world. But we know the One who holds this world in His hands.

Therefore, let us not waste our precious days consumed by fear, anger, or endless speculation about tomorrow. Let us pray, stand firmly upon God’s Word, proclaim Christ faithfully, love our neighbors, serve those in need, and use every opportunity God provides for His glory.

The year is passing quickly.

The world is changing rapidly.

But Jesus Christ is still Lord. His Word is still truth. His Gospel still saves. And our mission has not changed.

May our sovereign Lord guide every step we take this week and help us faithfully redeem the time He has graciously given us.

Serving Christ Together for His Glory Alone.

Soli Deo Gloria.
