The covenant in time

Time
Time is a big thing for me.  I have learned that when you can obey time, you will gain the respect of those you release the plan to.  Time is the like a covenant.  It is more about being careful about the words that come out of your mouth.  You have to understand that when you set something in time,  you are bound to perform it at that time barring a crisis.  Because we are not infinite, there is a start time and an end time.  Those are your boundaries.  I am always mistrustful of people who violate boundaries.   Rapist violate boundaries.  Thieves violate boundaries.  Murderers violate boundaries.  In order to have peace, sometimes, you have to create the boundaries that people don’t set.  When someone tells me something open ended, I create the boundaries.  If you don’t have a time to begin, I will tell you when I am going to arrive.  If you don’t tell me when the event ends, I will dismiss myself at a time that works for my plans.  If you lose time , you never get it back.  My Pastor, W. A. Bennett says that even God has boundaries that he set for himself.  There are some things he won't do and some things he will always do.  He is not bound by time, but still by boundaries.

Deep ain't it........
