In the blink of an eye, everything can change, so forgive often and love with all your heart. You may never know when you may not have that chance again. - Zig Ziglar
Meaning of blink shut and open the eyes quickly. it happens very quickly. It was all over in the blink of an eye.
We located 34 verses that refer to the blinking or twinkling of an eye.
On average the human blink lasts only a tenth of a second which is 100 milliseconds. That is incredibly fast.
Is this a measurement of how fast time can rush by? I have lived long enough to witness how fragile life can be... Some feel they have all the time in the world to find out who they are? They have all the time in the world to hold loved ones close. They have all the time in the world to say I love you... They can believe in God and find Jesus tomorrow... Will tomorrow be too late?
After all, we have witnessed many accept Him into their hearts with their last dying breath. I do believe we are all living on borrowed time.
Just as no one knows when Jesus will return. No one knows when we will be called home. It very well could be in a blink of an eye... Will your heart and soul be ready... or will you stammer and not know what to do or say... as you stand before Him... will there be regrets? Will you feel you want a do-over? or will you feel you did not have enough time?
If you, are lucky enough to realize this life is short and that each person you meet has their own struggles. Embrace them with loving-kindness... Be the most thoughtful caring human you can be... Love large.. be compassionate.
Things of this earth, are fleeting and will not buy you a ticket to heaven! Knowing someone at the gate will not get you in! Being a member of an elite group does not guarantee you a seat...
You will stand alone...
You will not be able to hide your heart! Will you be proud of authentic you? You are the only gift you have to offer God. Is it the best version of who you can be??? Or did you let this world darken your soul?
God will see you with eyes that can penetrate your soul...He will hear the kind words you have spoken to others. He will feel the love that you carried in your heart. Is your gauge full or are you running on empty?
You may feel you have time to get your house in order... But what if you left us behind in the blink of an eye... It's not too late... close your eyes and invite Him in... Let Him guide your heart ...
Be ready today for tomorrow may not come. Don’t wait until finding yourself on the other side of your last breath.
Find Him now, Love Him now!!! Love Him with all your heart, soul, and mind!
Be the most authentic loving person you can be... ( we are all a work in progress ) make today better than yesterday...
Jesus replied: “’ Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind Matthew 22:37
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed. 1 Corinthians 15:52
“For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another.” Galatians 5:13
But do not overlook this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. 2 Peter 3:8
