I just finished reading a great blog post from one of my favorite blogs.  She always has such great topics and encouragement.  I wanted to share part of it here .... click on the link below to read the entire post.  I hope you will be blessed by this reading, as I was.  There are so many distractions in this world .... may we focus on the important "things" in life!

Twenty-four hours–that’s all you get. Time is our most valuable commodity. We not only have a limited number of hours per day, but we are only given a limited number of hours to live.
