Redeeming Your Time in Busy Seasons
You can’t create more hours in the day, but you can redeem the ones you have.
The Reality of Busy Seasons
Some seasons of life are simply full. Between work, family, and commitments, the pace feels relentless. But overfilled days don’t have to mean empty hearts. God calls us not to escape busy seasons, but to live wisely within them.
A Call to Redeem Time
“Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.”
(Ephesians 5:15–16 NIV)
Time is a gift we cannot replenish, but we can redeem it — by aligning our choices with God’s priorities and using each day as an offering back to Him.
Practices That Redeem Time
-
Prioritize purpose. Focus on what moves your God-given calling forward, not just what feels urgent.
-
Eliminate distractions. Set limits on what pulls your attention away from what matters most.
-
Weave prayer into your day. Short, simple prayers throughout the day redeem moments that might otherwise be lost.

Remember
Redeemed time is not about doing more — it’s about living aligned with God’s wisdom.
