Time

I guess there have been more blog posts about time than anyone could be bothered to count - certainly more than I'd care to imagine. I don't think I'm a deep enough thinker to come up with anything that no-one has thought of before. But sometimes it's the little things that get my attention rather than the unfathomable depths that some people manage to understand!
And I've been thinking today - where does the time that I waste go to?
I've said lots of times in my life that I want my time to count for Jesus. That I want Him to use me. But the time that I spend sightlessly admiring the view through my office window, or the time that I spend checking twitter for the 30th time....where does that go? Does it count for anything at all? Does it help me to "relax"? Is it simply "gone" and no-one knows where to. Is there actualy an angel in heaven who has the thankless task of going through the moments of my days and doing the equations between time well spent and time wasted. And what is time that has been wasted recorded as anyway? Is it like an appointment book with just blank spaces? What goes in there.
I don't have answers to this by the way......just questions. And some of those are rather vague!
