Author Of Time

Who knows what is healthy and what is not?
Can you ever rely on a source?
Do you have trust in humanity?

Sorry I haven't posted in so long. I don't really like excuses, and you don't care anyway, so let's just get on with it, shall we?

Quote of the day:
May the road rise to meet you May the wind be always at your back May the sun shine warm upon your face And the rain fall soft upon your fields And until we meet again May God hold you in the palm of His hand.
- Irish blessing

Christianity is so widely spead, I still find it hard to believe. I mean, every culture/religion has some sort of God. There are so many prayers, blessings, proverbs, sayings...that can it all possibly come back to only one god?

Today's message really does apply to a lot of people these days. I can admit that I am one of these people who live my day, rarely thinking of God, push myself to the brink of exhaustion, and then repeat the cycle every day.x

Twenty-four Hour Days and Stress - Message #198

"There is never enough time in the day for my work. We should have twenty five hours in each day." But God gave us twenty-four hours each day to accomplish our tasks and oh how we chafe under the restraint. Then we try to accomplish more than time allows. We place ourselves under huge amounts of self-imposed stress.

As we do so, we also fight against God. We fail to recognize it cannot be God's will to pack more into twenty-four hour day than will fit. Because we don't like God's time constraints, we push ourselves. We get up early. We go to bed late. Yet the list of work grows and stress grows too.

Look at what the Bible says, "It is vain for you to rise up early, to retire late, to eat the bread of painful labors" (Psalm 127:2). The word "vain" means "deception." It is a deception to get up early, to cram the day with activities, to retire late, and to see each day as a day of "painful labor," only to repeat the cycle again. Why? You will not receive that for which you work. Because you are forgetting God, you are not using each day properly. Psalm 118:24 says, "This is the day the Lord has made." Remembering the Author of time and setting priorities will reduce stress.
