"In his kindness God called you to share in his eternal glory by means of Christ Jesus. So after you have suffered a little while, he will restore, support, and strengthen you, and he will place you on a firm foundation." 1 Peter 5:10
"That vacation went by so quickly". "Time flies when we are having fun". "Before you know it, your kids will be all grown up and leaving the house". "Why is this app on my phone taking 2 seconds to load when it should be immediately?" Time is relative. For a four year old, a month feels like an eternity because a month is 1/48 of their life. For a 20 year old, a month is 1/240. In perspective, 1/240 is equal to 6min in one day. So one month, or about 30 days, to a 20 year old is 6 min of a day which isn't much time at all.
Lord, help me to realize that most things I go through may seem like a long time but in relation to eternity, it is only a little while.
