Time Flies

Oh, how time flies! I can remember being a teenager, then later the adult years came and so did all the responsibilities and challenges.  

The years go by quickly! But the most important thing is not how old we've become but what we've done. Done, you say? Yes, how have you and I lived out the years God has so graciously given to us? 

From the time we become followers of Christ, God holds us responsible for how we are living out our Christian lives. We must give an account for our words, our deeds, our time, talents, and how they have been used and spent (at the judgement seat of Christ Matt. 12:36, Rom. 14:12). He has given us a blueprint to follow with many promises that we can count on as well as many blessings He has for us. How many trials have we endured while trusting God through them? Have we lived up to the title we've been given as 'Peculiar People' (showing by our lifestyle that we belong exclusively to God. 1 Peter 2:9)? Have we separated ourselves from the world and its ideology, and practices? Are we faithfully persevering, and practicing daily obedience?

Since we realize that time waits for no one, and with each passing day we're aging, we ought to assess our lives and take a good honest look at where we are, spiritually speaking. From the time that you accepted Christ as your personal Savior, how far have you come in the race? Are you where you should be? Are you lagging behind? We lag behind spiritually when we give ourselves excuses for not being obedient to God like repeating the same sins over and over again asking for forgiveness without forsaking them. Remember, an excuse is a high-class lie.

 God is expecting His children to grow and fulfill their God-given purpose on the earth. The years fly by quickly and you don't want to wake up one day at an age and physical state where you can no longer serve the Lord. You don't want to be that person who has spent their years circling the same bottom of the mountain for years with nothing to show for it. You don't want to wake up one day only to realize that you wasted your youth, and middle-aged years of vigor and strength on everything but honoring God.

May the Lord help you and I to make steady and consistent progress in our daily Christian lives.

    As a writer, I enjoy giving you the honest side of truth! As an artist, I create what doesn't exist. Each day I look for new and creative ways to use every ability God has so graciously given me.
