How Time Flies 

Seems like yesterday we dragged ourselves into Best Buy with our

diseased computer. A week has passed, and all is restored. 

     "We are so little reconciled to time," wrote C.S. Lewis. 

     "God has made everything beautiful in his time. He has put eternity into man's heart, yet he cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end"(Ecclesiastes 3:11). 

     "Beauty has its time before fading and dying, but eternity haunts us," wrote Janie B. Cheaney. "Perhaps we can understand time (and space) as the canvas on which God paints creation. If that's the case, we will someday, in heaven, experience it from the outside.

     "Maybe eternity will be our opportunity to see the whole cloth of time as God has woven each of us into it, marveling at the intricate patterns and mysterious providences and connections. Finding out what God has done from beginning to end will be a glory far better than Christmas.

     "Every moment weaves into the final cloth. As R.C. Sproul used to say, 'Right now counts forever.'"

     We may be diseased from time to time, even deceased, but if we allow the Savior to have his way with us, we will be restored forever, world without end.
