Life is indeed too short; way too short! Those of us who have attained retirement age know all to well how true this is!! Recently, I saw a TV show hosted by Morgan Freeman about time; in it, they assigned a time passage factor of 1:1 at age 12 and 2.4 to 1 at retirement age. This confirmed what I already knew- the older you get, the faster time passes.
Now this "fact" brings rise to a couple of questions: If time does indeed pass faster in my "golden years" then isn't it more precious?, and secondly, What should I do with this "precious time"?
And the following verse answers the question (at least for me, it does)...
Colossians 3:15 (WEB)
15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.
Find the peace of God, your calling to be in the one body (his church) and most of all- "Be Thankful"!!!!
In other words, Get right with God, continue to be right with God and have an attitude of thankfulness always.
In short- T.G.F.A.D.!!!!
