In His wisdom, God gives to each of us a limited, finite number of hours a year in which to achieve our goals, both material and spiritual.  He gives us these house in sequence, day by day, month by month.  If they are wasted, however, they are neither repeatable nor refundable.  He gives the same amount to the rich and to the poor, to the young and to the old.  Whatever successes we may achieve in this life will come from the purpose to which we put God's priceless gift - time.
