Last night I had a curious thought, have you ever wondered why it is that each day when we awaken, we feel pretty much like the day before. We look into the mirror and look just like we did yesterday. We wash our face and comb our hair to face the day, with the same feelings about significant issues as we had yesterday. Of course, it might be that today we have a new pain here or there, or our hair might be unruly. Also, it is possible we have softened about a minor issue that we held so stubbornly the day before. Generally speaking, things are the same.
YET …
… the march continues day after day, week after week and soon one more birthday, another year goes by, this is known as “time.”
We don’t see the advance of time with each passing day however when you compared a picture of yourself twenty years ago; you can’t help notice. Time sneaks up on us, and we don’t see it happening although we know it is happening. Inside our bodies, resides our immortal soul which will not age. We feel physically fit as we did 40 or even 50 years ago, i.e., we hear music and feel as if we could get up and dance all day, but when we try, we realize the effects of time on our body.
An eon ago; a time when no mirrors or means of reflection existed, people were unable to see the results upon their bodies of the”time effect” — especially when they felt the same inside (their soul) as they felt in their youth? In a sense, they were misled blind to the truth of aging.
God is like that too, don’t be misled, we can’t see Him, but He is there changing us! I once saw a bumper sticker that read: “Don’t judge me, God is not done with me yet.”
