Time sharing is more than just taking time to share Jesus with some one, it is also about giving of myself and my time to love on and help others. 


Take Time

Lord I thank You for my new life in You.

I long to be more like You every day.

Help me to be aware of others and what I can do.

I want to love them and touch them Your way.

Speak through me to heal a broken heart.

Use my hands to touch them with care.

Give me strength to walk that extra mile and from us do not part.

Fill me with Your Spirit that they may know Your there.

I want them to see You I want them to know.

I must slow down so I can show.

That Jesus hears our prayers.

That Jesus truly cares.


Time Sharing

I really look forward to vacations because, it is a time when my husband and I share day dreams about what we would like to do in the future. While we were in Hawaii I learned about another time of time sharing. People in Hawaii and on the main land swap houses and rent so they can vacation somewhere else. As a Christian I love spending time sharing about Jesus. But I see that I should also do another type of time sharing. I need to slow down and really take time to share in others burdens. I think sometimes I get so busy with my own small stuff (which I shouldn't sweat) and totally miss the fact that I could and should help someone else. No burden is so big that I can't do something! I can sit quietly with someone, I can pray, I can physically pitch in when I am able, I can be a listening ear, I can encourage, and more! Time sharing is really all about giving. Giving of my self, my time, and giving others a taste of  my Jesus. Giving someone a touch, a word, and the love of  Jesus can work miracles. The Lord has blessed me with the fact that in order to give Him to them I must give me also. I am in Him and He is in me. Anyway does my house have to be so spotless that I can't call some one and brighten their day? Or if  I see my neighbor needs a hand that I can't just run out and help. Do I have to hurry home so fast from church or an event that I can't stop and sit with someone just to give them some moral support? What is really so important in my life that I can't stop and do what God has made me able to do? Be quiet my flesh and mind I no longer want to hear your excuses about "no time", "it's not convenient", "your to tired", You've done enough", "there's nothing you can do", "Your not strong enough", "you don't know those people", "don't get involved it could me trouble for you or you may get stuck helping them forever". To you my flesh and mind I repeat shut up! 

Let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart. Galatians 6:9 Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. Galatians 6:2, So let each one give as he purposes in his heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God loves a cheerful giver. 2Corinthians 9:7, Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become as sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 1 Corinthians 13:1
