Time

Being retired, I often wake to think, "What will I do with my time today?" Then other days, I have so much I want to get done that I wonder, "Will l have time to do it all?" Time is here today, then gone, and back another day. It seems time is endless, but then time is gone before I know it. How does this make any sense? 

     There are a lot of quotes about time. Below are just a few. However, Ecclesiastes 3 provides the most valuable information. 

 

Time is money

Time is fleeting

Time heals all wounds 

Time waits for no man 

Time brings all things to pass

Time flies over us but leaves its shadow

 

     Ecclesiastes 3: 1-8 KJV  “To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to plunk up that which is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance, a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to get, and a time to lose, a time to keep, and a time to cast away; a time to rend, a time to sow; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; a time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.”

  

     Ecclesiastes tells me all I need to know about time. What I ask myself is, “What is the time, and will I use it wisely?”
