“Time is Endless in Thy Hands”
Sunday Bulletin

These words come from the poet, Rabindranath Tagore. They are, indeed, a reminder of the infinite as we contemplate the finite in this world of experience. At the end of the year as we bid adieu to the last moments of the solar calendar, we turn our thoughts to those moments that shaped our lives. And we look forward to the new adventures of soul that will arrive at the gate of year.

Time is endless in thy hands, my lord. There is none to count thy minutes.
Days and nights pass and ages bloom and fade like flowers. Thou knowest how to wait.
Thy centuries follow each other perfecting a small wild flower.
We have no time to lose, and having no time we must scramble for our chances. We are too poor to be late.
And thus it is that time goes by while I give it to every querulous man who claims it, and thine altar is empty of all offerings to the last.
At the end of the day I hasten in fear lest thy gate be shut; but I find that yet there is time.

Rabindranath Tagore, Gitanjali
