David of the Bible wrote this line in poem to God.
A thousand days! That is almost three years.
Stuff I could do in three years:
- write a few books
- get a degree
- have 4 babies
- write a thousand daily blog posts
The limit is the limit of your imagination (and the time frame of 1000 days).
The other day I was speaking with some friends who commented that it must have been so very boring to be a shepherd, like David was. I'm not so sure. I think he spent every day with God, worshiping Him and writing those epic, intimate psalms. And he said just one of those days is better than a thousand anywhere else. What a strange concept to over-stimulated us!
Who is this God? Who is He that is better than a thousand days anywhere else? Who is He who lays claim like this to being so worth our time and attention?
Who is this God?
