Hello Everyone,
WE ARE LIVING ON BORROWED TIME.
Psalms 90:10
The length of our days is seventy years—or eighty, if we have the strength; yet their span is but trouble and sorrow, for they quickly pass, and we fly away.

Many people think that we are given 70 years of life and when we have passed that then we are on borrowed time. That is not what the Scripture says.The average life span (world-wide) is less than 70 years but should we live beyond 70 years those extra years for most they are seldom years of joy and happiness. [Read verse again.]
Our whole existence is a gift from God. From the day of our birth until the day of our death we are on borrowed time. ("It is appointed unto man once to die")One of the great questions of all time is, “What is the meaning of life?”
This greatest of all philosophical questions is answered in the greatest of theological books.Eccl. 12:13 -- Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.
Mark 12:30 -- Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.

The wisest use of our borrowed time is to invest it in a personal relationship with God.

Oh How HE Loves Us!Pastor Phil
