TIME
So I stand on the edge of sanity wasting time,
I glide between decisions taking time...around the reeking,
Because if it won't wait for me, why should I respect or wait for it?
Time and time again, I try to keep up with time!
But it runs away....with me, without me.
Time keeps its own time and therefore does not let me in on its secrets, keeps me distant.
So then I am left wondering where has the time gone?
I refuse to wait for the time...
My stubbornness precedes me like pride to a fall.
For only time will tell and with time comes healing,
With time comes process which develops growth.
Truth be told, I'm afraid of time...because I don't know what time is, what time it is?!
And therefore don't know if there is enough time...time to love, time to laugh, time to learn, time to grow, time to succeed.
I'm afraid time will be stolen and I that I will spend time on foolish things!
But...then...I should hold onto time...not let it go so easy...
Even when it wants to run away....with me, without me,
For time is precious...and all along I should have seen...
That time did not want me to chase, wait or buckle running out of time!
But rather for me to walk IN time...
**Ecclesiastes 3:11a "He has made everything beautiful in its time"**
Lord I pray for us often out of time, that You will help us to redeem the time.
