Five @ Freedigitalphotos |
I'm skipping the word prompt for this day as I write this a day ahead. I will be on vacation starting Friday so, I'm doing this now.
It's been an exciting ride doing this challenge and it's almost done. Woohoo!
Five-minute free writes....not exactly as I don't write that fast. It takes time for me to compose a written article. So I guess, I only got the "free writes" part right and I followed most of the word prompts except on two occasions, this one being the second time. Twice, I think I was able to actually finish in five minutes. Anyway, I just like to be honest on that part.
But, what can we really do in five minutes? Oh so many things, and these can make quite an impact:
- Pray. In just five minutes, we could have prayed for a lot of people already, or just simply talk with God and spend time with Him.
- Read. How many chapters of the Bible can you finish in five minutes? Or perhaps some devotional materials? Or maybe a blog post from an inspiring writer?
- Talk with a friend. Someone could use some cheering up and maybe five minutes is all it takes
- Walk for five minutes or more, and you'll be doing your body a lot of good
- Write. It doesn't have to be a lengthy post, but a short one that can touch other people or inspire others, that's five minutes well spent
- Think things over before you decide. Maybe five minutes is not enough but it's a start to a final decision.
- Rest. Even for just five minutes, and then you're good to go again
It's easy to waste time because we think we have a limitless supply. In eternity, yes, but in this temporal life, time is very precious. What we do with our time determines a lot of the things that happen in our lives. Whatever you do, make those five minutes count.
As for me, I think I'll do a five minute stretch as I've been sitting here for quite sometime. Time to stretch those stiff muscles.
How about you? What can you do in five minutes?
