What are you investing your time in? Is there a project you are involved in or an organization you are affiliated with?
In his book The Confidence Factor, Tom Mullins quotes the late Vince Lombardi, legendary coach of the Green Bay Packers. Lombardi said, "I firmly believe that any man's finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is the moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle - victorious."
I like good quotes and that is a good one.
So, what cause are you devoted to? Everyone is devoted to something. Some are devoted to making themselves happy. Some are devoted to laziness or selfishness. So, everyone is devoted to something.
I encourage you to evaluate your life and make sure you are investing your time in a good cause.
Of course, of all the noble things a person can do on this earth, a life lived for Jesus Christ is very worthy.
Someone has said, "Only one life, it will soon be past; Only what's done for Christ will last."
We all need to make sure that the things we are investing our time in is worthy and will last.

- I am a Baptist pastor. I love the Lord and have a desire to honor Him although I am certainly not perfect. I love my family. Outside of the Lord, my wife is my best friend. She is strong where I'm weak. I love sports. I am a history buff. I love to read. I enjoy western movies. I also enjoy reading motivational books. I have a passion for meeting people where they are in their life pilgrimage and tell them about the love of Jesus.
