“Time is something we cannot control. We cannot pause it. We cannot extend it. We cannot go back and redo it.
But we can decide how we live within it.
Some people live long lives but feel empty. Others live simple lives but carry depth, joy, and meaning.
Because life is not only measured by duration. It is measured by intention.
“Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.” Psalm 90:12
Every day is an opportunity, not just to exist, but to live with purpose.
To love more intentionally.
To walk more closely with God.
Adding life to your days means choosing what matters most.
It means being present instead of distracted.
Grateful instead of rushed.
Faithful instead of careless.
You may not control how many days you are given.
But you can decide what fills those days.
Because a life aligned with God is never wasted, no matter how ordinary it may seem. ❤️🔥”
A great post from: “Just Sayen'” (FB)
Hi Friends! I'm sharing this post, because this is something I've also been thinking about recently.
I've been a Christian a pretty long time, and I have learned that life is made up of moments. Some are good, some are not. Some moments join together to make minutes, maybe days, maybe longer, but they all have one thing in common —good or bad, they all pass.
God encourages us to live in the present,
Isaiah 43:18-19 (NIV). “Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. [19] See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”
(See also Phil. 3:13–14, 2 Cor. 5:17, Lam. 3:22–23, Heb. 12:1–2, Matt. 6:34)
The best thing we can do is enjoy the good moments and learn from both the good and the bad moments. Ecclesiastes 2:24-25 comes to mind, so I'll end with that.
Friends, I pray that you have a wonderful day, filled with many blessed moments in Jesus' name, Amen! 🙏
“So what's the best thing to do? Eat, drink, and enjoy your work, recognizing as I did that these things are given to us by God, [25] for who can eat or enjoy life apart from him?” (FBV)
