Word

• What is something that would make you lose track of time?
• Pastor John mentioned three “Time Wasters”: Misdirection(Doing the wrong things), Laziness (not doing anything) and Diversion (missing things because of distraction).  Is there one “time waster” you can relate to or are more susceptible to?
• Read: Psalm 90:12
• What does it mean to “number our days”?  Why do we gain wisdom from it?
• Does this text encourage or discourage you? Why?
• Read: Ephesians 5:15-17
• In Paul’s time, he described the days as “evil”. Do you think that’s still true today? If so, what makes you think so?
• How does “redeeming the time” make a difference in the context of evil days?
• How do we make God our first priority with our time? 
• What advice would you give to others about planning your day?
• What do you need to apply from this lesson?

Witness

Have you ever missed an opportunity to tell someone about Jesus and then later regretted it?  How can we make this a priority in our days?

Prayer

Pray that God will help you apply this lesson.  Pray for any other requests you have
