We need to remember the gift itself, and we especially need to remember the giver. God gives us this gift, because we need it. God gives generously, in this as in all things, to meet our needs. And God gives us this gift, as a token of love, as a way to celebrate our relationship. God loves us, and time is a gift which reminds us of God's love.
Love is the important thing.
When we live in that love, we will probably learn to handle time better. Another way the Bible suggests we handle time is prayer . Prayer is a way of making time, of making sacred time. All it takes to sanctify time is God, a soul, and a moment. And all three are always here.
