There’s a great blog called ‘Stuff White People Like’ and as all popular things do, it’s inspired some imitations, such as ‘Stuff Christians Like.’ There are quite a few funny posts on both sites, but this more serious one stuck out to me today: “Believing in Calendars“
“I don’t think God looks at time like we do. I think he looks at it like a four-year old.
My four-year old daughter believes everything she’s ever done happened yesterday. There’s no delineation between last week, last month or last year. All activities are placed securely in her large “yesterday bucket.”
“Remember yesterday when we went to the zoo?”
“My birthday was yesterday.”
“Yesterday, that mean boy pushed me down on the playground.”
I used to think this approach to time framing her life was adorable. She only has the now and the yesterday and sees little use for anything else. But in the last few months I’ve started to believe that’s how God sees things too.”
I found this great blog through Marko.
the rest of us can’t read this blog. it’s invite only, apparently.
That’s really very strange. I’ll see if I can find out what’s up.
