Time To Love

There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven; Ecclesiastes 3:1

Time. My internal clock is so out of whack right now. On our trip we have crossed three time zones so many times, it makes your head spin. Mountain, central, eastern, central, mountain. Yesterday my sister and I found ourselves parked in front of a store that wouldn't open for an hour. This morning everyone in this house was awake at 4am; three dogs and three humans were all out of bed by 5:15. We are early risers, but this is ridiculous! Makes you wonder...which time zone is "God's time"? Is daylight savings central time zone the real one? Summer time or winter time, before the last week in April or is it the first Sunday ???? Is it 7:02am or 6:o2? Help.
Nice to know that at a time of confusion such at this I can go to good old Ecclesiastes 3. It doesn't matter what time the clock shows, it is all God's time. Right now God has given us time to share love. Three humans, three dogs, 5:30am, assembled on the sun porch, coffee in hand, anticipating a glorious sunrise, appreciating each other. God blessed us with the extra time this morning to laugh and to enjoy. God blessed us this morning with a memory to keep when things settle down, when the trip time is over, for when we are miles apart and miss each other.

I’m working with Takkle.com, a social networking site that provides golf videos, photos, and a whole lot more. Takkle is a place where students, athletes, coaches, and fans can share their passion for golf and other sports.

I feel that your site is very useful. I would love to know if you could link to our social networking resource.
