I heard a very interesting little joke that humorously describes the awesome difference between man’s temporal, earth-bound mind-set and God’s eternal nature:
\nA man once said to God, “You are so great! One day is\u00a0like a thousand years to You, and a thousand years like one day.”
\n“Yes, that’s right,” answered the Lord.
\n“God, You are so awesome! You own all the silver and gold, and all the cattle on a thousand hills. All of heaven and earth belongs to You!\u00a0I’m sure a billion dollars must be like a few cents to You, right, Lord?”
\n“Yes, my child, that’s correct.”
\nAfter thinking for awhile, the man said, “Dear Lord, could I borrow\u00a0a penny?”
\nTo which the Lord replied, “Sure, in just\u00a0a second.”
\nConsider the following Scriptures:\u00a0\u00a0Psalm 90:4; 2 Peter 3:8; Haggai 2:8; Psalm 50:10-12; Isaiah 57:15; Deut 33:27.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
