should take full advantage of every day.

  **The Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as
we ought, but that very Spirit intercedes with signs too deep for words.**

>Imagine there is a bank that credits your account each morning with

>What would you do?  Draw out every cent, of  course!

>Each of us has such a bank.  Its name is TIME.  Every morning, it
>credits you with 86,400 seconds.  Every night it  writes off, as lost, 
>whatever of this time you have failed to invest to  good purpose.  It 
>carries over no balance.  It allows no overdraft.  Each day it opens a 
>new account for you.  Each night it burns the remains of the day.
> 
>If you fail to use the day's deposits, the loss  is yours.  There is
>no going back.  There is no drawing against the  "tomorrow."  You must 
>live in the present on today's deposits.  Invest it so as to get from it 
>the utmost in health, happiness, and success.  The clock is running.  
>Make the most of today.
