When I was young I thought old people were a different species. What has caught me off guard and taught me a huge life lesson is: We remain who we have always been. Our deep core of personality is us. Our souls remain uniquely us. We hopefully mature. We hopefully become wise. We hopefully have chosen to be kind and forgiving. We hopefully have learned how to navigate life successfully. We hopefully grow into a better person, not a bitter person, but we are uniquely us from birth to death.
I will embrace today. I will embrace what this next year will bring. I know for a fact many life changes are on the near horizon. In the past I have loved and embraced change. These upcoming changes have me running to the Lord quite often as I am not as eager to jump into what is 'next'. I know God has it covered! He has blessed and cared for me beyond words or comprehension. I know!
The theme for me this next year is to remember.
He (God) knows our frame and remembers we are dust! Psalm 103:14
For the reader who does not know God this may sound very weird. But it is not! God created man out of dust. He created us/me! He loved His creation and He cares deeply for me/us. I am a fragile human that is important to the creator of the universe.
What ever this next year brings I will be cared for and carried by the one who created me!
Let year #67 begin!
