Just a Minute

 

How do you feel about time?

 

 

  • Too much time
  • Never enough time
  • Time’s a wastin’

Time change. Again.

In 1784, Ben Franklin wrote “An Economical Project for Diminishing the Cost of Light,” joking that the people of Paris could save on candles by getting out of bed earlier in the morning.

The German Empire implemented daylight savings in 1916 to reduce use of coal in wartime. The US followed in 1918, abandoned it after the war and brought it back in the energy crisis of the 70’s.

In all that, mankind has not moved a single minute. God’s time triumphs. Again.
