Time waits on no one!

Matthew 25:24 (KJV) Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:

We more than likely have read or heard about the talents written about in Matthew chapter 25. One man has 5 and one has 2 and then there is the one who only has 1.  The one with 5 doubles his and the one with 2 doubles his. The one with only one does nothing with his talent. Oh yes he does, he hides it. 🙆🏻‍♂️why?  Matthew 25:25 (KJV) And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.

We all have talents some more than others. I had a friend that had multiple talents. His name was Jackie Stewart he lived in Tellico Plains Tennessee. I first met Jackie at a youth camp in Blairsville Georgia. He pastored a Church in Tellico Plains. He had taken as I did his youth group there for a week. I don’t remember the year maybe 1985 or 1986 that we met but we became instant friends. As we sat one evening together before we  went to another service he said to me “Wayne, I wish I was as talented as you are.” I looked at him like he was a nut. Talent, I said. You have got to be kidding. I will never forget that afternoon he told me that, when he himself had more talent than I will ever have. Little did he or I know that he would be in heaven in just a few years. Talent, what is it? It’s our ability to do something. It could be playing an instrument, it could be an artistic ability, speaking ability, carpentry ability and a host of other abilities. Like I said we all have talents. Now whether we use them or not is up to each individual. In the next few days I want to name 10 important things that we all can do that takes no talent at all. We will start with number 1 “Being on time takes no talent.” We all have the ability to be on time. One man told me that if you are not at least 5 minutes early you are late. Another man told me if 10 people have to wait 5 minutes for you because you are late then you have wasted 50 minutes of time. It takes no talent to be on time.
