Time is fleeting

God is not a God of confusion, He is a God of order. He has our life ordered for us, but when we stray from that order, and try to do things our own way; that is when we add confusion and sometimes trials to our lives. When we turn our hearts back to God, and seek His heart; things start to make sense again. How do we measure time? Is it measured as it passes us by; as we turn a different age, or by how we spend each moment? We all learn from it; whether we know it or not. We look back on it; sometimes with fondness; sometimes with regret. When we are young we abuse it, but don't realize we have done so until it has passed,and we would like it back. God gives us all a measure of it, and your time is part of His grand design. He puts it all in order before we even take our first breath. Then He gives us the choice as to whether we will seek out His order of time. Within our own measure of time life can change in a moment. We all learn that at some point in our lives--- it may be a change with joy attached to it or it may be with sorrow. I have been looking back at my measure of time; more so as my anticipation of life turns into my memories of life. Like many I have and still do not use it wisely sometimes. So I guess it can be measured by our use of it--- years, days, hours, moments and seconds. I think of my mother, and the time she spent here on earth; she always knew who held her time in His hands. Her Savior; Jesus Christ was her designer of her time and she knew that He was with her as she took every step, and "standing at the end of her life waiting on the other side." Amongst the chaos of life who do you trust with the whole of your time, your life. Do you choose yourself, or would you like to see what grand design your Savior has for you. He is waiting for you to come to Him and experience time and life eternal with Him. Cynthia Tansey Mealhow 2013 Quote-- Already There-- Casting Crowns
