How is time treating you?

Richard D:
Is it possible God has somehow shortened the days but we still have twenty four hours still? I know when I’m busy time flies quickly, but when I’m not busy at all it goes just as fast.
Did you ever hear the expression there are not enough hours in the day? I actually am experiencing this on and everyday basis.

No sooner I awake and I’m going back to sleep again. Life is going by to fast. What’s your take on this?  :-\

Hi Richard  :D
I hear ya bro! Never enough time anymore!

I've wondered about those verses myself:
Mark 13:20
And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days.

that would be in the KJV and when I'd read it, it was confusing to me because I would say to myself....WHY or WHY would God WANT to SAVE ANY FLESH? I thought He was destroying the flesh (the beastly nature) and perfecting the spirit? But then I read it in several other versions:


One was the English Standard:
Mark 13:20
And if the Lord had not cut short the days, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, whom he chose, he shortened the days.

THen I tried to understand WHEN this happens--
I'd like to hear everyone's take on this??

Ricky:
I was 39 yesterday and 52 today, and don`t know what happened. I must have missed somedays.

Marlene:
Hello All,

Wow!!!Joyce I remember reading those verses. I remember a few years back, my husband and me tellking his Dad that it seemed like there were not 24 hours in a day. His Dad laughed at us. My Mother lives with me and we often say this.

Those, verses would make sense the way you see all the confusion of religions and crime and all.


God Bless
Marlene

Hi Ricky and Marlene--
You know how "the less time you have, the more you get done?"
sometimes I think if you reach this season of life, you realize that there is not that much time left....so naturally, you begin to think about what's left on that "to do list" and start sorting out your priorities better....you know?
So, in that way...its a blessing! :)
Joyce
