One Day

24 hours..... 1,440 minutes.....8,640 seconds..... however you wanna put it, its one day. so with those 1,440 minutes probably about 1/3 are spent sleeping. The average middle schooler spends about 2 hours a day on video games. If you add that up thats about 60 hours a month playing video games, and 720 hours playing video games in one year. Thats 30 days a year! Those numbers were a little shocking to me. And keep in mind this is the average person. some people don't play nearly as much... and some don't play nearly as little. Its sad. Its sad to think of 30 days wasted by something that doesnt even matter in the real world. Its sad to think that while people are everywhere starving on the streets were sitting inside not paying any attention or caring about them. So this is my challenge, to anyone who plays alot of video games or watches alot of tv or spends alot of time on the computer, next time your starting another game/ logging on facebook/ watching another american idol... stop. think about 30 days of helping someone else, Serving someone else, or encouraging someone else. Then Go. and don't just think about it but do it! Stand out, Be different, Put those 2 hours to good use that day. Thats what God did and He called us to do the same.
