The school year is almost finished. Students have graduated and are looking forward to some new beginnings. Others are wiping their brows over exams they have to write to be able to pass on to the next grade.

Some will be starting school this year and can’t wait till the summer holidays are coming to an end. When I look at my family, it is hard to believe that some of my great grand children are starting school, while some of my children are talking about retirement. Really, where did the time go, how fast did the years pass by? Did we make the most of the time we spent on this earth so far? 
The older I get, the more I think how important it is to spend our time wisely, do things together with our family or just with our spouses or maybe some special friends.
Whatever the future holds for us, let us not forget to “walk in a manner worthy of the Lord to please Him in all respects bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God” (Colossians 1:10).
Let the Lord have His way this week.
