Over the past few days my social media feeds have been littered with a lot of aged faces that weren’t there before. Can you relate? And listen – it’s not because I started following all of my friends’ grandparents on Twitter. FaceApp has taken over the posting world this week. 

While it’s been quite entertaining to see what many of us might look like a few decades into the future, this social media trend doesn’t only offer a few chuckles, but a good reminder as well.

James 4:14 says, “What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.”

Time comes and goes quickly. But don’t be saddened or discouraged by this fact. God has given you these days – so take courage and make them count. They are a gift given to you for His purposes. Enjoy them and steward them well!

Teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom. Psalm 90:12
