Days of The Year, Month??

My phone is with me constantly so if I need to check the day or time, there it is. When I sit down to a computer the date and time are in the lower right hand corner. If I'm on a kindle I tap the screen and there it is yep, date and time.

If I turn on the TV yep, you guessed i,t date and time. And, me, I just don't always look sometimes I'm reading, look up and it's time to fix lunch or time to do evening chores or past time for the 6 o"clock news. I'm reminded like this every day to the point when I wonder why.

When I was growing up on this piece of property we rarely looked at a clock. The adults may have kept time of day but, not the kids.

Now, if I look up from a book and look out a window I can pretty much tell it's time to do evening chores or if I have some time to read more of my story. It's the way the light hits the East or West windows that tells me. So, if all the time pieces cease I bet I'll still be pretty close to a daily schedule.

I would wonder why people over the years cared about time but, it's obvious they did because sun dials, clocks, and time pieces of all kinds continue to be manufactured and used. Now we use the world clock to keep us synced.

I read a book about the comparison of the science of Physics and Christianity. It had a thought to ponder. "What is it going to be like to not have time as a stabilizing factor in life or to never age or never live on an aging schedule? To be free of all constraints of time and dates?

Pandemic keeps us home. We are free though, to rise or sleep or garden, or play games never worry about getting to a meeting or work or time. Try it. Think if you have to get to a meeting in heaven how it just happens without time or date involvement. I can't even express what occurs in my mind with a thought like this. The apostles must have experienced some real win-gee thinking as they followed The Christ around.
