Our God makes time and teaches us what it looks like to make Holy Communion 12 good use of our time on this earth. Our time is limited. Our time must be managed. Our time is out of SENDING FORTH our hands to the point that we must pause for our spiritual health’s sake to remember who our time falls under. Our time under God is time well spent. Under God we recognize how God is helping us Closing Hymn 445 Happy the Home When God is There through our weakness. Our time under God puts rest and self-care into perspective. Without God, our time is underwhelming in impact. Our time is underwater with the world’s problems. Our time is under arrest, easily kept from God’s promises.
