Good morning ladies,
The word of the day is “fugacious.” I remember one of my
mentors telling early on in my Christian journey that I needed to make sure to
take every opportunity possible within my current time in life. He said that as
I got older time would speed up. He used the analogy of how kids think that
summer lasts forever… and then at some point in life, summer as well as the
rest of life, speeds up. That is why there is an importance on using time
wisely.
“They are like a breath; their days are like a fleeting
shadow.” ~Ps 144:4
My question is: how are you spending the days of your life?
I think it is important to know that we sometimes overestimate what we can do a
year, and underestimate what we can do in five years. Sometimes when life is
not going the way we would like it, we withdraw and cease trying. But if we
just hold on and try to make every day count, we will find that in a matter of
time God can change and shape us. Whether it is regarding your spiritual life,
or just something that you know needs to get done, God can make our lives
worthwhile. So, although our lives might be fugacious, we have the opportunity
to live in eternity with the father following a life of productivity, hopefully
for the Kingdom.
Praying for you,
MO
