    2 Timothy 4:  The Lord will rescue me from every evil threat and will bring me safe to his heavenly kingdom.

    I have a friend who follows the sun around her back yard in a deck chair with a glass of fresh fruit juice in one hand and a book in the other. Here’s the question: Is she “wasting” time or “celebrating” time? Think carefully before you answer. It can get to be a very important question as life goes by.
