Time is a strange thing, or so I’ve heard.
And I’m beginning to believe those words.
Take a glance over your shoulder to ponder.
“How did time go so fast?” you might wonder.
Days creep, months fly
Another year has gone by.
“Could I have done better at using my time?”
This question bothers me sometimes.
“Should I have worked harder, had more rest,
Taken more time for others, or a little less?”
Minutes crawl, hours run,
And another day is done.
I never dreamed where I would go,
What countries I’d see, or who I’d know,
When I started this year with a group of friends
In Colombia at the old year’s end.
Hours change, seasons pass,
How are we here so fast?
I’ve seen a lot of places,
Flown many flights,
Met humble faces,
Seen famous sights.
And through it all I somehow sense,
I don’t need to worry how time went.
Through ups, and downs,
God’s grace abounds.
And in the year coming as I strive to live,
For God and His glory, May I ever give
The time I’ve been given where He directs,
Whether or no it’s what I expect.
Days come, years go
Our God reigns and He’s in control.
Happy New Year!
