I was talking to one sister and she made a catchy comment. She said that it is important that we let other people feel special. We treat them nicely, we are extra kind to them and when we are with them we give our full attention to them. We give them the best quality of our time to them.
After I had my one-on-one with this sister, I went home happy. I can personally say that it was a quality time. Because of the sharing, I know I have gained inspiration and another encounter with the Lord. I felt good about it that I was able to share myself especially when the sister said that she was thankful and was blessed by it.
The next day I went to adoration, as I was preparing myself on the way there I thought of the things already that I am telling the Lord. While I was inside the room, the Lord is there. I told Him everything I have thought of and when I was done, I just waited there and sat still. I just gazed at the magnificence of Who is in front of me. Suddenly in the silence and peace of the moment the Lord asked me, “Candy is this really the best quality of your time?”
I was speechless, I didn’t know how to answer it. All I know for sure is that the Lord has given me the best quality of His time at that very moment. Further on, He holds time. Time is in his hands, He is constantly there anytime anywhere. Just when I told myself that I gave a quality time to the sister I had one-on-ones with and was even about to tell myself again after the adoration, the Lord reminded me that I was able to share quality time because He first gave His best time to me.
“Lord You are the beginning and the end. You see my past, my present and my future. Teach me to value the time you have given me that I may always share it to other people; teach me to be the best steward of Your time.”
