Ephesians 5:15-17 Wisdom

Therefore be careful how you walk, not as unwise men but as wise, making the most of your time, because the days are evil. So then do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

The older you get, the more you should think about using your time wisely in the light of eternity. At my age now I've wasted a lot of time and energy on things that aren't Important, I realized that I need to try and evaluate what really matters and what this life really means to me. Moses must have been feeling like this when he wrote Psalms 90. He spent his first 40 years as a son of Pharaoh's daughter, living in comfort of the palace;  to spend his next 40 years as a fugitive shepherd wandering around the sinai peninsula. God has a divine will, we must walk carefully and redeem the time that he gives us. God is a god of purpose, just as Jesus had a purpose we all being followers have a purpose in this life. To talk wisely, you must know what God wants you to be, what dangers to avoid, and how to take advantage of the plans God has for you. I feel like I am a walking example of trusting the Lord and what he has in store for me, otherwise I would be a part of Ignite class 14. For my application I will write this verse down in my bible in remembrance to walk with the wise and to always seek wisdom.
