A Spiritual Perspective on Time and Ageing   2 comments

These readings are from the Bible (KJV) and the textbook of Christian Science, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy.

… beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

(The Bible – II Peter 3: 8)

Never record ages. Chronological data are no part of the vast forever. Time-tables of birth and death are so many conspiracies against manhood and womanhood. Except for the error of measuring and limiting all that is good and beautiful, man would enjoy more than threescore years and ten and still maintain his vigor, freshness, and promise. Man, governed by immortal Mind, is always beautiful and grand. Each succeeding year unfolds wisdom, beauty, and holiness.
