Psalm 74:17
Thou hast fixed all the bounds of the earth;
Thou hast made summer and winter.
It’s sometimes easy to forget that God is the Master of time as well as space. We think of God being everywhere. We often forget that He is everywhen as well. But just as surely as it is both summer in the northern hemisphere and winter in Auckland, New Zealand today, so God has His finger on the pulse of all time as well as all space. Today, if you feel pressed for time, remember that it all belongs to Him. Give time back to Him and ask Him to help you use the grains of it which are yours to His glory!
