So... what do you do when you cannot rewind time? I heard a preacher say something that is so simple yet filled me with fear. He said " There is something in life that always moves forward, you cannot slow it down, you cannot stop it, you cannot rewind it no matter how much you pray and cry and wish and that's time!" Time only moves forward and no man can stop it. I think we waste so much time in life. We just act as if we have forever, God says tomorrow is not promised. The problem is we think we own our lives, so we do what we want, when we want, how we want with our lives. Not thinking that we have this one life to make a difference in someone else's life. What did you think? That you were created to just work a job, party, get married, have kids and die? Really? That's it? This gift of life, the make up of the human body and all of its mysteries, it's uniqueness, your mind, it's intelligence...wasted? Wake up! Time is running out. A guess what, that fog that you cannot seem to get out of... its no one but the devil keeping you from knowing your purpose. Keeping you from making the best use of time. He knows that if he can keep you wasting your time in life, that you will waste the very purpose that God created for you. Satan is afraid of the difference you will make, its why he continues to deceive you.
You may think, "what there's no devil in my life, trying to keep me from doing anything." Do you really think he is walking around with horns and a fork, or with big sharp teeth and a scary voice? No, he is very appeasing. He is very sly, and very attractive. He is there to distract you, to get your eyes off of God, and good and to get your eyes on something that makes you feel good but in the end will harm you. He wants to gently destroy your life. Time... is running out. What are you doing?
How long will you believe the lies? Until you are 100 years old? Forget about your past! Leave it behind! Move forward, like time. There are times and seasons that nature goes through, we can leave from it. You have winter, everything comes to an end, it dies off, falls off, withers away, freezes over. Then you have spring, new seeds begin to bud, new life, warmth, the sun is out more, the rain comes, but it washes away all the dead left overs, it causes growth and freshness. Summer, my favorite! Is where all creation is enjoying life, sun is out everyday, joy in the winds, happiness in the clouds, everything is green, healthy and alive! Here comes fall, still beautiful but fading. Getting cooler, windy and feeling fragile. but every season has its purpose. Every season is necessary for life to continue forward. Every season has a certain time to shine and then its over, even nature understands time. Why don't we?
Why do we sit, and think about what we are not? Why do we sit and wish wish wish? Why don't we just get up and do something about it? Why do we waste time on the negative when there is so much positive just in the fact that we have lungs to breathe, feet to walk with, eyes to see? Is that not enough to make a difference? You don't have to be famous to make a difference, you don't have to have money to make a difference. Stop wasting time! God made you for a purpose. Stop letting the devil whisper lies to you, saying you are nothing. He's nothing! Learn to fight for your life and stop laying down letting others walk on you. Be tough, be strong and courageous! You are not weak! Be an over-comer, stop being a tumble weed blowing int he wind with no stability, be stable! Stand up! Speak out! Fight for your purpose, fight for your time! Or... you will waste time and when the clock gets here...00:00:00:01... what now? It's too late...Hey... stop wasting time!
I liked it. Good one ;)
