Life Moves On

The more sand has escaped from the hourglass of our life, the clearer we should see through it. (Niccolo Machiavelli, 15th-16th century Italian philosopher)

Today we’d probably be watching a digital clock or watch to reveal the passing of time. But an ancient hourglass is a really good picture of life’s fleeting moments. And the reminder that observing an hourglass is helpful, too, because life’s values and purposes should be clearer as time passes and we learn from experience and life itself. Live and learn!

So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise. (Ephesians 5:15)
For to me, living means living for Christ, and dying is even better. (Philippians 1:21)
