Not Wasted

   Attending high school, there all classes are on a uniform block schedule with all classes lasting ninety (90) minutes. There are four general classes daily, except for cases when seniors have enough credits to where they do not have to take four classes daily.
   Therefore, as one can imagine, there are classes that students take just so that they fill the educational requirements to graduate high school. Not to criticize the state of education of South Carolina, but there was a class that I was required to take during my sophomore year entitled Composition and Research. Every day I would witness some students falling asleep for most of the class period and pass the class. Partially because most of the time, we would finish the elementary work fairly quickly. Now it is up to you to decide how well this class consumed our time.
   However, if you are one that believes that 90 minutes of the day were wasted in that class, how much more then would you agree that we waste our time and energy daily by not following the Will of the Lord? How much time or heart daily do we put in discipleship, in seeking the Father, in Spreading His Word, in Obeying His Commands? I urge you, our time is not guaranteed in this life! Don't waste the life that you are given!
