Message: The Eternal Whisper of Time (06/21/'24)

Message: The Eternal Whisper of Time Dear Friends, If nothing happened, if nothing changed, time would be immemorial—a shadow in the vast expanse, a silent whisper on the edge of existence. We often ponder, what is the reality of time? Is it the Earth time, marked by the sun's daily dance, a rhythm of light and shadow, birth and decay, a cycle that binds us to the ground? Or is it space time in heaven, where stars are born and die in brilliant silence, a celestial ballet beyond the reach of human hands, an eternal testament to the cosmos' grandeur? Perhaps, it is human time, measured in heartbeats and breaths, in moments of joy and sorrow, a tapestry woven with threads of memory, a fragile yet resilient testament to our journey. Men alone of all creatures know time; we alone witness the relentless march of change. We alone remember our dead, honor their legacy, and bury our dead, a solemn act of love and reverence, a bridge between past and future, between the seen and the unseen. In the silence of the grave, in the quiet of the stars, in the beating of our hearts, time flows, unseen yet felt, a river that carries us all towards an unknown horizon. Here, the mystery of existence meets the eternal. It is in this flow that we find our place, our purpose, our connection to all that has been and all that will be. Time, in its myriad forms, is the silent witness to our lives, the eternal whisper that reminds us of our fleeting moments and lasting impacts. It is the unseen force that shapes our destiny, the unseen hand that guides our steps, the unseen thread that weaves our stories into the grand tapestry of existence. And in the end, it is time that remains, an eternal whisper on the edge of existence, a shadow in the vast expanse. May we find peace in this understanding and live our days with purpose and gratitude, cherishing every moment we are given. Blessings, Pastor Steven G. Lee (June 21, 2024)
