Time, Treasure, Talents
Temps, Trésor, Talents
We are all stewards of three precious God-given
gifts, which can conveniently be called the “3Ts”: Time, Treasure, Talents. Paul encourages us in
his first letter to the Thessalonian Church to keep our eyes on the eventual
prospect of the Lord’s return and not allow our attention to be excessively
diverted by worldly concerns or events, even including undue dwelling on the
memory of those who have preceded us into the anteroom of eternity. Of course,
grieving the loss of loved ones is a process we must all go through from time
to time; but eventually we must move on and ensure that, as far as we possibly
can, we “redeem the time”, seizing every opportunity to witness to God’s love,
for time lost or wasted cannot be regained and the Lord, for whom “one day is
as 1,000 years”, will require us to account for our use of it…..
