Why do You Stand Here Idle All Day?

After writing about trying to improve my time management, I read Stop Wasting Time from the Rebelution lads and was really challenged. Reading through their articles, I am humbled by these two seventeen year old guys!
They might seem harmless...Not at all. The price is the character that might have been and the competence that would have been. If we were to devote all the time we spend reading random news stories online to reading life-changing, soul-feeding books, how might our relationship with Christ flourish?

If we were to devote all the time we spend watching television to developing our talents in the areas of writing, speaking, musical instruments, filmmaking, painting, sewing, gardening, woodworking, web design, landscaping, computer programming, etc. how much more effective might we be in the Kingdom of God?
Isn't that a thought? How much time is wasted? How much I could have achieved? As I work and play, I will try to keep this in mind.

About the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing. And he said to them, "Why do you stand here idle all day?"
Matthew 20:6
