Time


It seems to me that many dreads the start of Daylight saving and looks forward to the end of it for one reason. Many wish it would get left alone and some state don't have a Daylight Saving Time. Around this time of year I'm guilty of saying it and I'm sure you have too. "I get MY hour of____ back." For me, my fill in the blank is "sleep".  But where did I get the idea that the hour that I was sad about losing and getting back was mine to begin with?  Yes. I know DST was thought up by man and some say the concept of time was thought up by man also. But I believe that GOD almighty created time along with everything else! So the hour that returns on November 1st truly is another blessing, another gift, another tool, that I need to use for him. How appropriate that we get on the LORDS day.

Now listen, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money."  Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, "If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that."   As it is, you boast and brag. All such boasting is evil. Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn't do it, sins.  James 4:13-17

Grace & Peace
