Right on time

Today, my devotions consisted of a study from the Bible app. The study is called Right from the Heart- one minute devotions. Today's devotion was titled "God's clock" and the scripture was 2 Peter 3:8, " But don’t forget this one thing, dear friends: To the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years is like a day." This is really a crazy concept that God doesn't operate in accordance to time. Yet, when Jesus came to earth, he limited himself and he became subject to a completely earthy power, time.
It is interesting to me how time is viewed differently, even around America, even within one house. People can view time so differently. One person may operate to get a thousand things done in a day to have it be "successful" and another person might do less so they can "enjoy" more of the day, but really this is something God does not worry about. Jesus knew how to view time. He knew his purpose and He even tells His Father that he "accomplished the work God had for him..." John 17:4 "I glorified you on earth, having accomplished the work that you gave me to do."
Jesus knew how to work within the limitations of time. He had His goals marked out by the Father and then worked to complete them.
We may struggle to know what God has set for us to do, and I believe God has something different for each one of us, but there are some commands we must follow daily. Daily we are to take up our cross and follow after our leader Jesus. Don't worry about how much you can get done in a day. Worry more about if you're accomplishing the work God has given you to do in your life. Zoom out a little from daily activities to the over all picture and lean on God.
