I bless you to
“Know the time” (Romans 13:11).
Not “chronos” time.
Not the quantity of time
Or the measure of one minute after the other.
It’s not knowing whether it’s 7 a.m. or 8 a.m.—
It’s knowing the kind of time.
I bless you to know
The “Kairos” time—
The quality, the nature, the opportunity,
Of the time that you are in.
I bless you to know the season,
The occasion, the possibilities
That are before you.
I bless you to discern
The context, the conditions,
And the true concerns
That matter now.
May you “know the time,”
Child of God,
You can know the time.
