When time stands still

Time. Our ultimate master. We only get the number of ticks on the clock that have been allotted to us.

 Like other things it never seems to come in the right amounts. Either not enough when times are good, or to much when we are suffering or have nothing good to fill our lives. 
Time never seems to be our servant. Same as money, rain, human love and so on.
Time is a cruel master though.
When our time is up there is no recourse but to accept its power over us.
Or is there?
There is a servant that always serves us. Always in the right way, in the right amounts, He is the perfect servant. 
It is His joy to serve us. He asks no wages for His work only our love.
This same servant conquered time for ever in a single moment. An earth shattering, sky darkening, veil tearing, blood dripping moment.
When he became the lamb of God.
All the courses of history past and future came crashing to a Hault. When he became sin for us and took our punishment. 
In doing this The Lord of eternity, opened a door for all men into everlasting joy!!!!
He made an end of sorrow, he destroyed death, he took captivity captive. 
Jesus triumphed over time.
 Time is no longer the master. When we choose to follow Jesus we follow one Greater than time. 
I am so glad about this I will never cease praising Him for it. I will sing His praises for ever and ever and ever, Hallelujah Hallelujah!
