Time

Alma 40:8 ". . all is as one day with God, and time only is measured unto men."

Mike and I attended two funerals this week. Actually, Mike attended three.
Funerals are instructive. Their purpose is to comfort the survivors, not those who have passed.
For me, time is a measurement that helps keep one thing after another.
I don't understand God's concept of "no beginning and no end."
But I do have a start on understanding God's love for his children.
I said it's a start.
And I received that start through the gift of time.
Some are given a few seconds of life on earth and some a hundred years plus.
I want more time.
But I don't control that.
Maybe what I really want is to make today a day of love and happiness that I can offer to God.
If I get a tomorrow, I want the same.
And one day, that will be time . . enough.
