Blood Time

What's in a lifetime? Break it down, it can be measured. I'm not sure when my clock will run out on this planet, but there IS such a time. Heavenly Father knows when my time ends and He knows when your time ends. Between Today and End there are a certain number of days, hours, minutes. Blood was emptied for the sum of those days: 5 pints for our lifetimes. A pint for one fifth of your lifetime, maybe 15 years. A tablespoon per year? A drop for this week. How did I squander that drop? It's not mine to neglect. It is owed.
