I believe that God gives us the gift of time and how we uese it can be such a reward for us and others.

I probably own another 5, all in need of repair or battery. But I just use my cell phone, and find I look at it much less than I used to consult a watch and yet am just as "on time" as I was when watch watching constantly.

Actually, I have two, but doesn't keep correct time. I don't wear one every day since I retired. As a matter of fact, I tend to only wear one when I'm going out, more as a piece of jewelry than a timepiece. I do, however, nearly always wear my watch to church...........I guess to keep track of how wordy Phil is being!! :) I have a watch. Actually, I have two, but doesn’t keep correct time.

Most of the time escapes me because I am so busy and then wonder where time went??? 24 hours often seems too little in a day, but... we are as busy as we make ourselves, huh?! :-) I think it's everyone all around the world. I know in the Netherlands everyone is racing against the clock as well. Sometimes life seems to go by way too fast. We need to take time to stop and smell the roses as well. God's Grace.

One Sunday night in the men's restroom he was standing next to our worship leader who happened to have on the same watch. The worship leader was a little uncomfortable about this older gentleman looking down at him in that particular situation until the old man said, "Is that a (he told the make) self-winding watch?" Our worship leader replied that it was. The old man said, "I was given one of those when I retired, but I don't move enough these days to keep it wound up."

When someone who was not wearing a watch was asked the time, the answer was "Two hairs past a freckle". :o) I refer to my watch very often but reading the above made me think of an old joke.

I don't often wear a watch because sometimes it irritates the skin on my wrist, or it'll just get in my way. (Same reason i don't like to wear bracelets.) But I always have my cell phone on me and use it's clock whenever necessary. I look at a clock often during the workday, either on the phone or computer, but not so much the rest of the time.
