A Seventy-Year Life

    Suppose God granted you a life of seventy years? How would you spend it? An average person would spend it like this:

Three years getting an education.

Eight years recreating and relaxing.

Six years eating.

Four years talking.

Fourteen years working.

Three years reading.

Twenty-four years sleeping.

How much time do you give to God? If you went to church every week and prayed for five minutes every morning and evening, you would give God five-months out of seventy years.
