Time and Money
Time has been one of the world’s renown tool or agent of either death or life. Construction or destruction. It would be acknowledged too that money is a cousin to time. An embodiment of time and money and money of all times, as the world’s greatest tools, which has either shaken or deformed lives is God himself.
Genesis gives a great account of God initiating the concept of time. The use of time is vast. Talking about night and day, weeks and months, and also talking about years. Money as a cousin to time has been in influence for ages and has equally achieved the same task as its cousin.
These two resources have changed lives either positively or negatively. An infinitive study into the creation of the earth and the heaven with respect to time, has been put in place by God Himself to relieve himself of the stress of creating day and night repeatedly, creating man repeatedly and creating all things repeatedly as well. The Lord God Almighty is a God of orderliness and plan, and the major secret to His success with respect to the creation are these tools. Time and Money – which are going to be handled independently and correlatively.
The book of Ecclesiastes 3: 1- 9, gives a clear indication of the areas in which time has its influence. Each of these aspects will be taken one after the other.
A TIME TO BE BORN.
God in His wisdom has made use of time to control the beginning of all things. What does it mean to be born? Birth signifies a new era. A new beginning. A new dawn. For instance, the birth of a baby into a family changes a lot of things in the family. A woman has a more affectionate approach to the arrival of a new born than a man. She is extremely careful in areas where the man wouldn’t even think of care. The number of hours of sleep is different from the moments before she gave birth. The husband or father of the child, can still gain a few hours of sleep extra, compared to the mother. He begins to get acquainted with babysitting, changing diapers, correctly determining the temperature of food for the child just to mention a few. It would be painful but true to make you realise that this analogy also works well for our ideas as humans in general. The human brain is pregnant of ideas, and innovations that need to be given birth. And there is a time frame for that to occur. Take a good look at plants; some thrive well in the winter, others summer and the likes. A child is just spurted out into the earth. It takes processes; sexual intercourse between a man and a woman. Not a boy and a girl. Fertilisation of the woman’s organs occur and an embryo is formed, which takes nine full month’s to become a reality.
Genesis 1 & 2, tells us in detail, of the very first steps our ingenious God took before He triggered the creation. “1: in the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. 2: The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. Take note of the phrase, “The earth was without form” and “There was darkness over the deep.” These are phrases that depict that there was a challenge to God’s plan – “creating the heaven and the earth.” After God detected the challenges that faced his plan, did He back? Did He see an impossibility? Did He turn back like most of us would do when we hit an obstacle? No. So “His Spirit hovered over the waters.” What steps have you taken over the challenges before you? You desire to be educated. Have you meditated about being educated? What options do you have before you? How can you overpower the challenges ahead with these options?
