Time Constraints

Daniel 2:13 - 16


¹⁴ When Arioch, the commander of the king’s guard, had gone out to put to death the wise men of Babylon, Daniel spoke to him with wisdom and tact. ¹⁵ He asked the king’s officer, “Why did the king issue such a harsh decree?” Arioch then explained the matter to Daniel. ¹⁶ At this, Daniel went in to the king and asked for time, so that he might interpret the dream for him.


Daniel was such a logical person.  He started asking questions, trying to figure out what what was going on.  He then went to the king and asked for time.  Time to tell the dream.  Time is something that we all need.  Time is not always there, and normally, we all want more of it.  There seems never enough hours in a day, never enough minutes during a contest, and never are we happy with time constraints.   But honestly, we just need to budget our time better.  For the past two months I have had all the time in the world.  I did not rush in cleaning, looking for a job, or dealing with things.  I now need to learn to budget my time because I have a part time job.  Luckily it has started just as Marching Band is over, so I am not doing too many things at once.


Daniel asked for time and logically talked to the king about it.  The king agreed and gave that time to Daniel. We just need to do as Daniel and use our time wisely.
