What is time?

I have recently heard discussion about the nature of time and whether it has always "existed" - or not.  Time - and history - are an important ways in which God communicates with us.  It is also a "creation."  Time was created and created for a purpose.  God uses time to his purpose.
"He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end." (Ecclesiastes 3:11) KJV
Or, in the words of the RSV:
"He has made everything suitable for its time; moreover, he has put a sense of past and future into their minds, yet they cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end." (Ecclesiastes 3:11) RSV
