TIME

Another year has past, yet nothing in terms of eternity. Time is man made for ordering life and seasons. Without time it is difficult to order things and make plans and set goals. All this needs a concept of time. God is not ordered by time because He is timeless. How can a time bound world cope with a timeless God? Yet God did intervene in history by sending His Son and His birth divided time into before and after His birth. Man is driven by time because death hounds him throughout his life. No one has control of this and so time is so important to man. One ages through time and many deadlines are made according to time. Wars are made and done through the occupation of time. Time controls our lives and dictates when we eat and sleep. What a freedom to be living with eternity in mind. I am just passing through life on earth as my eternal life is in heaven. This is what Jesus came to achieve for many to be in His Kingdom for eternity. This is what it means to have eternal life. This changes everything for time is no more your master but your servant. Treat time as your servant and you will not fret over things. When death knocks at your door, you know that this is not the end but the beginning of another life. Hallelujah.
