The Dance of Time December 4, 2023

“When as a child, I laughed and wept, Time crept. When, as a youth, I dreamed and talked, Time walked. When I became a full-grown woman, Time ran. And later, as I older grew, Time flew. Soon I shall find, while traveling on, Time gone. Will Christ have saved my soul by then?” - Chester Cathedral Inscription

Time is your friend. That’s right. It is your companion and influences everything you do. you do a lot of things according to a schedule and you do your best to simply keep up.

Sometimes it seems to move slowly, while at other times you can’t understand where it went. You were sixteen and, without blinking it seems, you were thirty-six.

You are blessed! God has divine moments planned just for you and He knows the number of your days. He knows the lans He has for you to see that you live a fulfilling life.

The time is at hand for you to give God thanks and praise for your moments and your hours. He wants you to make the most of each minute you are given. It’s your day to create with Him!

“I know the plans I have for you.’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” - Jeremiah 29:11 NIV

Let us pray: Lord, help us to use our time wisely, to cherish the moments, and to do our best to live in the hope of it all You’ve planned for us. Father God, hear our prayers of intentions from today, from our prayer wall and for any unmentioned prayers in our hearts.. In Jesus’ Name we pray. Amen.
