Are you running out of time?
It is September, and our children
are back in school. The leaves are turning color, and before you know it; snow will
be falling, and we will be wondering what happened to 2014? The days and weeks
and months and years seem to roll one into another like a dream.
Psalm 90:12 “Teach us to number our days that we may gain a
heart of wisdom.”
Take a few minutes this week, and think
back on the events that have transpired. How many; births, deaths, how did the economy
affect your life, how along did you get in reading your Bible, how many people
did you bring to your local church, did you help anyone to receive Jesus’s gift
of Salvation?
Psalm 39:4 “Show me, LORD, my life's end and the number of
my days; let me know how fleeting my life is.”
I mention this as a beloved pastor
friend of mine passed away last week and looking back what a wonderful life of
commitment to Our LORD. At his funeral, his wife requested the church to have 50
people in the chorus worshiping God, raising the roof off the church with
singing full of love. Just imagine the choir he must have heard when he met
with Jesus in person? Awesome!
Job 9:25 “My days are swifter than a runner; they fly
away without a glimpse of joy.”
Let us to do the same. As we
become more cautious of our fleeting days let us become more appreciative of
the Lord's providence and more aware of His favor on us.
