A Time and Place for Everything

My sister recently graduated from high school, and our principal has a saying he likes to use, especially on occasions like that. It is "There is a time and a place for everything." He has grossly overused that phrase to the point where no one takes it seriously anymore, but I do think it's one to remember. For example, there is a time to spend with your family, and a time to spend alone with God. I think that's definitely something people forget. There's a time to spend with God. Now, that doesn't mean you should never speak to another person ever again. I believe God created us to be with other humans, to interact with them. And I guess this really ends up saying, watch your extremes. For example, I enjoy singing. That doesn't mean I should spend all of my time singing. I also love talking. But if I talk too much, no one will want to listen to me. I have to listen too. It's a give and take. That having been said, I do think there is one thing that we can never do too much of. That's loving and trusting God. Hopefully I can remember that as my awesome sister heads to college in a few months.
