In our present dimension of living, time is a certainty. Einstein factored it into equations. We expect that just as yesterday was, today is. And there will be a tomorrow. But that is not true for all of us, because the future – time beyond the present – is an uncertainty for the individual. And most of us have lived long enough to understand that while time remains constant, times change. The Bible gives honorable mention to the sons of Issachar because they were men “who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do. . ..” (1 Chronicles 12:32 NKJV) Do we understand the times we live in? Are we willing to adapt and change as necessary when the times demand it? Do we seek the Lord in order to “know what we ought to do” in our lifetime, to make a difference in our generation?
"God, who is liberal in all his othergifts, shows us, by the wise economy of his providence, how circumspect we ought to be in the management of our time, for he never gives us two moments together." --Francois de Salignac de La Mothe Fenelon
"Time is our destiny. Time is our hope. Time is our despair. And time is the mirror in which we see eternity." -- Paul Tillich
