The clock is always clicking.. don't waste a moment. Tell someone you love them before its too late.
Meaning of time: the indefinite continued progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future regarded as a whole.
"travel through space and time.”. a point of time as measured in hours and minutes past midnight or noon.
There are approximately 21 verses in the Bible about time.
When did we become a society driven by the tick-tock of a clock? We are always in a rush. Deadlines to meet. Meeting to attended? We juggle work, home, family, friends? Where does the time go? Do you remember when you were a child it seemed that your birthday and other holidays seem they would never come? But as adults birthdays and holidays come so fast they make our heads spin??
Somehow, I feel we need to get back to the basics of stopping long enough to appreciate and make the most out of each given moment. I know we are all tired of hearing no one has to tomorrow promised. However, this word study seems to contradict that statement.
I found in the scriptures we do have tomorrow promised. Please read Ecclesiastes 3:11 it clearly states “He has also set eternity in the human heart, yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.’
It also states in James 4;14 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
whereas ye know not what [shall be] on the morrow. For
He has thought of everything and He has left us so many clues.. Why don’t we see them? I guess we are just too busy watching the clock?
So, what do we do with this little nugget of information? I say we take our eye off the clock and focus on Him because our life is but a vapor and in time it will vanish from the earth.
But as we focus on Him. He will teach us what to value. Who to value, When to value. He holds all the secrets in His heart. His beauty is He is willing to share them with His children. We just need to be ready to listen.
Our Father gave us the moon, the sun, and the stars to guide our days, our nights, our months, and years. And the tools to learn each valuable lesson.
I see this as a simple math problem.
1. Earthly possessions + Life = Vapor
2. Our Heavenly Father + love = Promise of Eternity
Choices
It's Him, It's always Him
He has also set eternity in the human heart, yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. Ecclesiastes 3:11
James 4;14 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.
I said, ‘Plant the good seeds of righteousness, and you will harvest a crop of love. Plow up the hard ground of your hearts, for now, is the time to seek the LORD, that he may come and shower righteousness upon you. Hosea 10:12
