Thought For The Day

Time: Fleeting

One of my favorite hymns has these as a few of its words – “Time is now fleeting, the moments are passing. Passing from you and from me.”

I suppose one can see that in a negative light. . .or one can see it as a tremendously positive motivation to be about an ordinary but important task often overlooked.

There is half a month left in this year. There are some folks who mean much to you. . .or vice versa, and you have had little or no contact with them this year, or, especially if time is fleeting, this month or, maybe even this week. Do it this year! Do it today! Do it now!

As I write this post late this evening, there are two friends I am planning to see tomorrow. I pray that I won’t awake in the morning to discover I should have done so yesterday. That is a regret that cannot always be avoided. . .but knowing one has done one’s best brings a measure of peace.

So don’t be dense, or lazy, or careless. While there is time. . .
