"A thousand years in your sight are like a day that has just gone by, or like a watch in the night." -Psalm 90:4 (NIV)
There always seems to be a lack of time. We may plan to fit everything in our schedule, then rush to be sure it fits like we have planned. Even with planning and rushing we may not fit everything into our day, so how do we plan to be sure that our days are truly meaningful and not a blur of rushed events?
Time to God is different than time to us as humans. The Psalmist says that a thousand years are like a day. Just imagine if we had a thousand years to fit everything into our day! We are also reminded by this that God's timing may be different than our own. Our view of needing something "right now" may not fit within God's long-term plan for our lives. Instead of rushing and pressuring God to fit within our timeline, we need to talk to God and consider His timeline and our willingness to have faith in His timing for our lives, then we can truly see how meaningful our lives and the days of our lives can be!
When feeling you need more time, talk to God and consider His time!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for taking the time to guide my life. Help me to always trust in Your time and plan for my life. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
