Listening, Thinking, Saying, Doing

For the first time in a long time, I feel like I have plenty of time. Time to listen (including reading), time to think, time to speak (including writing), and time to do. I retired from my job. My kids are grown up. Other than taking a walk or doing a bit of weight training, I have nothing you could call a hobby.

I converse. I write and read. I take care of myself and help with our home. I spend. I give.

Now that things are simpler, I find that my focus is not as sharp as I hope it can be.

Focus on God.
Focus on family.
Focus on serving others.

I pray to God for the wisdom to use my time well.

Isn't it funny how the hardest time to use your time well if when you have very much of it.
