Living at a Special Time

I admit it–sometimes I think about strange things.
Today I am thinking about the special blessing I have had to live at this particular time in history. In Bible classes, we try to think about what it would have been like to live in the time of Abraham, or Moses, or Jesus, or at some location described in Acts during the early development of the church. Last night in Bible class, we contemplated life during the last half of the first century A.D. Have you thought recently about the uniqueness of your time in history?
Today I am thinking about the people I have known–those who have lived through some of the same time in history as I have. I am thinking of the rapidly changing nature of our world during the last half-century plus. I am thinking about some of the countless thousands of people we have met and known. My life has been blessed by those whose lives touched, connected, and intertwined.
If you are reading this blog, there is a good chance you are among the special people I am referring to. Today I celebrate life in the moment. Thank you for being part of my life.
