    • Daylight Saving Time
    • I am a priest in East Africa working with CLC Mission.


      Don't let the sun go down on your grievances

      In Africa we have it right. Twelve hours with light & twelve hours darkness.This was God's plan for human being.The time God was creating the world and all creatures, He commanded Daylight& darkness. Why??? Because He wanted us to rest after our work.

      In Western world, time is money. In third world countries,there is no hurry. This is just the same. In Africa for example, we tell time by looking at the position of the sun. In western countries you must sleep & walk with your watch and mobile phone to remind you about every minute you spend.

      God was right to to give us light & darkness. Praise his name.
      What I think we can think about is to try to work in the night and sleep in the day time. May be will take away stress.

      May GOD Bless you.

    I like your view on this. I have been annoyed for many years about the daylight savings thing. I suspect we have it because some people are upset that they cannot command the sun, so they do the next thing - make us all change our clocks. It is ridiculous. I live where the nights in the winter are exactly twice as long as they are in the winter. I thought that was funny when I figured it out when I was a kid. I still think it is funny!
