Time is a funny thing....

Time is a crazy thing. the actual thing that sent my mind down this road of thought on time was our milk jug. Weird, right? You see, when I buy a gallon of milk I always look on the milk to find the furthest possible date, so it will last. When I am putting it in the cart I always feel so triumphant that I got the best one and I think 'man, that date is sooo far away.' The Gallon of milk I bought last week is good until march, which throws us into a whole other month of 2010, the third month! The month that spring will finally come! The month my oldest daughter turns three!! But you see, thanks to time passing, before I know it I will hear Jon say, 'Ran, the milk is no longer good..." (I don't drink milk so he is our gauge on this sort of thing). I think in my head, "it can't be bad already!' Can it??? Has that time that seemed so far away come and gone already?

Time is a fragile thing

It can be so great and at other times it can feel like an enemy. Like when your heart is healing, or you want to forget something. When you are waiting on an answer, or a situation to clear up.
Time.
Time can also be used great, because it is as time passes that we heal, or forget. We make memories, build deeper relationships and grow.
The best part about time, good or bad, is resting in the fact that it is in God's hands.
Time....
