How much one can make out of life? With one sunrise to sundown? Probably not much when all we attempt to do is to make sense out of life in the purview of the hurried routine of accumulating more and achieving more and wanting more. We think that the value of life is measured in the quantity. We confuse quality time with busy schedules and all. But what if life isn't just comprise of 24-hour frantic cycles of self-centered to do lists? That there is actually something more? That YOLO is a myth, and that we're here to last?
Life is made up of moments lived upon the grace of the Divine. It is an experience of God's unending favor. And when life is viewed in the lens of eternity, what we have each sunrise to sundown are little infinities gifted to us by an infinitely loving God.
"Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom." (Psalm 90:12)
