We can't stop it, as it keeps ticking by~
TIME.
TODAY is the only TODAY we will ever have in this moment of TIME.
YESTERDAY was the only YESTERDAY we had in TIME.
TOMORROW will be the only TOMORROW we will every have in TIME.
Past. Present. Future.
Tick. Tick. Tick.
I look back into TIME
and know that I wouldn't be sitting here TODAY in this moment of TIME
if GOD wasn't in my YESTERDAY.
I look back over TIME
on this day
that can be marked in so many different ways~
480 months ago
or
2087 weeks
or 14,610 days
or 350,640 hours
or 21,038,400 minutes
or
1,262,304,000 seconds
And I am blown away,
because the TIME that has past
can be summed up by
40 YEARS!
40 YEARS
that I have been married to my man
which is
TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!
Oh our 14,610 days together
that
started the moment
when we said
"I DO".
We said it in church, making a PROMISE to each other.
But what we didn't realize that we were making a PROMISE WITH GOD.
We made it with our mouths, yet not our hearts because
we didn't really know
GOD.
Oh we BELIEVED HE was GOD.
Oh we BELIEVED JESUS was HIS SON.
We KNEW & BELIEVED
in a "religion" kind of way.
Did we KNOW that we didn't really KNOW THEM?
Oh no!
It wasn't until
TIME ticked by
&
GOD made HIMSELF KNOWN to us
because HE PURSUES HIS children
because that is what LOVE does.
HE found us, where we found HIM~
just waiting with open arms
to welcome us into a relationship
that has become the CORD that keeps us together
TODAY & TOMORROW & into FOREVER.
Where we just a couple of kids madly IN LOVE
1,262,304,000 seconds ago?
Oh yes.
Are we still just a couple of kids madly IN LOVE TODAY?
Oh yes, but with a different LOVE that isn't just a touchy feely kind of LOVE,
because when the LOVE of JESUS overtakes you
LOVE just doesn't say
I DO
as it says
I WILL.
Because when JESUS enters into your life
LOVE becomes an action
that moves beyond just words.
So on this day
I am ever so thankful
for
GOD coming IN~between just a couple of kids,
so these couple of kids
could experience a LOVE
that never stops
coming
IN~between us,
that is only found
IN JESUS
which is
TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!
Who would we be without JESUS?
NOTHING,
because we couldn't exist without HIM.
Thank you my man for
1,262,304,000 seconds of
STANDING BY ME
through our ages & stages
and
for STANDING with me
with JESUS
IN~between us .
Who would we be without JESUS?
Oh just a couple of kids who thought they knew what LOVE was.
BUT Thank YOU JESUS that we get to experience a
LOVE that needs no words
because
HIS LOVE
is a never ending LOVE
that enables us
STAND TOGETHER,
because
IN JESUS
we never STAND ALONE
as
"A cord of three strands is not quickly broken" (Ecclesiastes 4:12)
because
LOVE ALWAYS has & LOVE ALWAYS will
"STAND BY ME"
(listen to the song below).
