"What kind of clock do you like best?"

So what kind of clock do you have? Is it a digital clock, the kind where you can watch the seconds rush by? The computer program I use to record my radio show has a clock on it that goes down to the thousandth of a second. Talk about time flying! On that clock it really moves on.

Or maybe you have a non-digital clock, the kind with a sweeping second hand. It marks the passing of time in a more fluid, but nonetheless fast manner. After all, time stops for no one, right?

My favorite kind of clock is an hour glass. Some of them are true hour glasses and are rather large. Others are smaller and mark just ten minutes or so, but they function the same: grains of sand, or something like it, drop down from one side of the glass to the other. The grains drop one at a time.

And that’s all you really have when it comes to time, isn’t it? One second. One moment. One hour. One day at a time.

That’s why I really like hour glasses. They remind me to make the most of my life as I listen for God and make a life one moment at a time.
