Taking Time For Granted ...


Today I received some not so great news from the Dr. and I started to feel a little sad. I had to take a step back and have a long conversation with God. 

As I was walking out of the Dr. office, a gentleman with a cane was going out too so I waited for him, so that I could hold the door. As he approached ,he asked if I knew where the Dr.office was located on his paperwork and I did, so I gave him directions and advised him that it's best to set an appointment with them. 

The man paused for a moment, then said, That would be nice, but I don't have much time left and I need to have this done." (with tears in his eyes & a smile on his face) He thanked me for holding the door and wished me well & I did the same and told him that I would keep him in my prayers. 

All too often we take TIME for granted... I learned a long time ago to cherish each moment because you never know if it will be your last. Time is the one thing that we can not control how much or how little we have. What we can control is our use of it. I feel blessed & grateful for the shoes that I walk in daily .... #mycurrent thoughts...

  1. Yesss we do take time for granted! Especially if we are operating under our own time (Kronos- clocks and calendars) instead of God's time (Kairo- infinite and non sequential).
