Can we even imagine being divorced from the concept of time? The world of a child amplifies the present, and diminishes both the future and the past. This kind of life removes grudges (past) and worries (future). Is childhood kind of like the Garden of Eden? Today, life is often measured in increments – or moments in time. Everyone has a certain number of days to live – but, we do not know how many. God is eternal. Consider the unique testimony of Jesus. (John 8.58) This is an unusual use of tense – He does not say, “I was.” God is right now – in the days of Abraham and through the end of time. He does not live a series of sequential moments . His existence cannot be measured by time . We cannot comprehend eternity . God teaches us. (Ecclesiastes 3.11) He tucks within us a hunch that we are made for forever . Life is just a moment. (2 Corinthians 4.16-18) All our troubles are light afflictions to be endured for just a moment. The brevity of life grants us power to abide, not an excuse to bail out. Eternal glory far outweighs everything else! What about us? Life is just a moment – or mere vapor. (James 4.14) “Be still and know that I am God … ” (Psalm 46.10)

Just a Moment
2 Corinthians 4.16-18
We live in a world of time constraints.
Can we even imagine being divorced from the
concept of time?
The world of a child amplifies the present, and diminishes both the future and the past.
This kind of life removes grudges (past) and worries (future).
Is childhood kind of like the Garden of Eden?
Today, life is often measured in increments – or moments in time.
Everyone has a certain number of days to live – but, we do not know how many.
God is eternal.
Consider the unique testimony of Jesus. (John 8.58)
This is an unusual use of tense – He does not say, “I was.”
God is right now – in the days of Abraham and through the end of time.
He does not live a series of sequential moments .
His existence cannot be measured by time .
We cannot comprehend eternity .
God teaches us. (Ecclesiastes 3.11)
He tucks within us a hunch that we are made for forever .
Life is just a moment. (2 Corinthians 4.16-18)
All our troubles are light afflictions to be endured for just a moment.
The brevity of life grants us power to abide,
not an excuse to bail out.
Eternal glory far outweighs everything else!
What about us?
Life is just a moment – or mere vapor. (James 4.14)
“Be still and know that I am God … ” (Psalm 46.10)
