I am not making this stuff up! It is so evident in our lives. I lived eleven months abroad doing the World Race, and that eleven months was so packed with life and experience that it felt like each month was a year! The time did move but at a manageable pace. Ecclesiastes 3 speaks about time and in verse 11 it says this: He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end.
I need, and you need to come to grips with eternity. God has made us eternal beings and someday time will not be any issue, but that day is not today. While on the World Race we used a lot of words and phrases that I had never really used before like: Speaking life, Pressing in, Feedback, and Debrief. All really fine words/phrases, but the one word that I really like and get excited about is the word “KINGDOM.” People have it tattooed on their bodies, people have written countless blogs about it, and it is the one word that actually burns in my heart. “KINGDOM” that’s what I want my time to be about! The “KINGDOM” is timeless, and the Devil cannot touch it. When we experience the “KINGDOM” time doesn’t fly, it stands still because the “KINGDOM” is beyond the constraints of time and we get to be apart of it if we so choose. I say let’s choose to be part of it starting today, and let’s make that same choice tomorrow. Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Galatians 6:9
