Fear of Time

Fear of Time. Something that we all experience. There are only so many hours in a day, days in a week, weeks in a month, months in a year, and so on. We are only given so much time, and we don't even know how much we have. I saw a reel that said, “If I do not know when my life will end, how will I know when to have a midlife crisis?” I felt that in my bones, and that question has kept me up many nights (along with the might of the Roman Empire). When we get lost in how much time we have left, we have two options: self-pity or thanksgiving. I'll be honest with you: the month of September is killing me because there is too much happening and too little time to do it all, and I am wallowing in that pity and milking it for all it’s worth. Rather than wallowing in self-pity about our lack of time, we ought to recognize how important this gift is and use it well. Our lives and thus our time is a gift from God, how do you use it?
