Tithing

We were challenged this evening at church to think about tithing. Not of the normal, 10%-of-your income type tithing, but of your time. My time. The figure quoted was 10% of hours in the day, meaning two hours and twenty-four minutes. I want to do this. I want to sacrifice the time I spend online, writing on my blog that hardly anyone reads, purposelessly Facebooking, or whatever other pointless japes I spend my time doing. And yet, 2 hours and twenty-four minutes is a large chunk of my day. I want to instigate this kind of routine in my life, especially now I'm back at college, but with so many other demands on my time, such as academic work, or socialising, I struggle to figure out where it will fit. Watch this space.
