TAKE TIME
Daniel 2:12-13, 16
"For this reason the king was angry and very furious, and gave command to destroy all the wise men of Babylon. So the decree went out, and they began killing the wise men; and they sought Daniel and his companions to kill them .... So Daniel went in and asked the king to give him time, that he might tell the king the interpretation."
The king, in his anger, lost his patience. He wanted an answer NOW!!! Sometimes we are under pressure to give an immediate answer. But it is wise to take time to cogitate. My children got frustrated at times because when they me for something, I would often say, "I need to think about it." Quick answers are often unwise, and I have regretted many spur-of-the-moment decisions. It pays to take time to seek God's mind, as Daniel did.
TODAY'S THOUGHT: Since quick answers are often unwise, it pays to take the time to seek God.
Have a "take time" day. Love you.
