The Passing of Time

It amazes me how fast time moves now that I'm older. I can remember when I was just 10 years old and watching my dad shaving one morning just after he turned 35 years old. As I stood in the doorway of the bathroom and wondered when I would ever be old enough to shave, I thought to myself, "Thirty-five years seems like forever." Now I am 40 years old with three teenage sons and wondering when it was when I got older. It is so true when the Bible tells us that life is like a vapor, it appears for a little while and then it is gone. Why did it seem like it took forever to get through school? If I could have spoken to that little 10 year old boy 30 years ago, I would have told him to invest his time wisely, because before you know it, it will be gone. And once it's gone, you can never invest it again.
