Those numbers assigned to our life can really play havoc with the mind. Am I too old to do....? Well, if I am honest, yes because my body and my mind do not always agree on what is best. However, I am not going to stop dreaming or planning adventures. I might just die doing it. That would be okay for I am enjoying life!
I have found myself pinning and worrying about some chapter closings ahead. I do not want some of these chapters to close! I do not want some changes that will come about! In these emotions though I am realizing that I am robbing myself of the moments I have been given.
None of us knows when our last breath will be taken. Each night as I lay my head upon my pillow, I pray and thank the Lord for the gifts He has given to me each day. Some gifts are being able to trust Him to handle what I cannot. Other gifts are pure joy, both ends of the spectrum include Him.
I must put off the worrying that is a new habit I find myself pulled into. I have no reason to worry for God has more than met my needs through out this short life here on earth. If everything were taken from me today, I have been blessed beyond measure by my creator.
Tonight another calendar page will turn as the clock continues to tick. If I am given tomorrow here on earth I have a purpose and privilege to live life to its fullest.
Have you ever thought or wondered about 'why' you are here and 'what' have you done to make this world a better place? This is a constant thought for me and as I reflect on this often, I come to the conclusion that I still have things to do and people to meet. i have people to help and encourage and people that need to know about God. How this will take place is the adventure I am looking forward to experiencing.
