According to my calendar we will change our clocks this weekend. We 鈥榝all鈥� back an hour. Clocks have always intrigued me. When I sat in a doctor鈥檚 office I counted the seconds on the clock and counted exactly till 60 when the minute changed.
When I check my digital alarm clock I noticed that two squares can make the numbers 0 to 9 and they change automatically. It is amazing the progress we have made, but there is one thing we can not predict yet and that is the time when the Lord will call us home. Doctors can predict how long we might live according to some disease we might have, but often people will live 鈥榦vertime鈥� and the doctor鈥檚 prediction is wrong. When I leave a group of people and am committed to seeing them again I often mention, 鈥渢he Lord willing.鈥� We can make plans and I am one who thinks it is half the fun, but we need to live just one day at a time and make the most of it.
