Over the years we get older eventually when we have the time we will look over our life and wonder what happened to the time. The reason we have not seen the time passing is because of ignorance. We have ignorance because of the fall and our busy everyday lives. Yes our culture is quite rigid and in a way revolves around time. However, its that rigidness of time that allows us to obtain that ignorance.
Time is interesting, we can't change it, turn it back, slow it down, or speed it up. However, what we can change and affect is what we do with that time.
Time is often a restraint, but how would we make time freeing? From my point of view I see the end of my time here on earth as a line of freedom. When I'm raised from this planet I will no-longer be under the restraint of earth's laws. Time will not effect me because time will not exist where I will be. However, that point doesn't really offer anything that can be applied right here where I am to make time a freedom not a restraint.
The main thing I can get from the fact that time is limited here on earth is motivation. We can be motivated by the fact that we may not be here tomorrow. If we are to get everything out of this life possible in the time we have we must make our moves quickly.
Switchfoot - Gone
We are not infinite
We are not permanent
Nothing is immediate
We're so confident
In our accomplishments
Look at our decadence
Over the past few days I really felt down because I felt like what I was doing wasn't really doing anything. What I was doing didn't seem like it had any purpose, but then Sunday came and I again felt like my life had purpose because what I did that day was something lasting.
Are you using the time you have or just letting it slip by? Don't live life with regrets. Be profound and take action doing something for God, something that lasts. Time always moves on and we can't stop it, but that shouldn't hold us back from taking action.
