Kairos = an ancient Greek word meaning the "right or opportune moment," or "God's time."
The ancient Greeks had two words for time, chronos and kairos.
While the former refers to chronological or sequential time, the latter signifies "a time in between", a moment of undetermined period of time in which "something" special happens.
What the special something is depends on who is using the word.
While chronos is quantitative, kairos has a qualitative nature.
When have you had a kairos moment?
I believe that I've not experienced an opportune moment.
Jeff has opportune moments, it seems, whenever he sets foot into Hardees. There, before him, God presents a person in need and Jeff - a quick evaluator of a situation - readily is available. Safi had several opportune moments at the last USDA Food distro.
Oh how I long for kairos.
