I take my pre-teens home today and come away knowing change has happened, not that that is a bad thing… it’s an inevitable thing!
I am on the doorstep of turning sixty-one, and I have noticed a few more lines on my face, slight more sag, and know I am growing through a physical age change…this too is inevitable!
I am attending a memorial tomorrow for a woman I grew up knowing and loving as Aunt Donna, she and my mother were young women together, the friendship they shared was always an adventure, especially for us kids in toe behind. Tomorrow I will share memories, hugs, and tears with her children, who, like me, are now grandparents. Time marches on…its inevitable.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 NCV “There is a time for everything and everything on earth has it’s special season. A time to be born and a time to die. There is a time to plant and a time to pull up plants. There is a time to kill and a time to heal. There is a time to destroy and a time to build. There is a time to cry and a time to laugh. There is a time to be sad and a time to dance. There is a time to throw away stones and a time to gather them. A time to hug and a time not to hug. There is a time to look for something and a time to stop looking for it. There is a time to keep things and a time to throw things away. There is a time to tear apart and a time to sew together. There is a time to be silent and a time to speak. There is a time to love and a time to hate. There is a time for war and a time for peace.”
We are but human beings passing through our seasons. I appreciate the season of life that I am in; for the most part, it’s a peaceful season, but we know amongst the sun a few clouds will gather, and the rain will fall… it’s inevitable.
Within this circle of life is constant change… it’s inevitable! What you do with or where you go with those changes is up to you! I don’t care for change and often try and fight it…does me no good! So, I walk with the creator of life and change, asking for his peace and direction as my horizons begin to appear different and the inevitable change has begun to shake my ground.
Psalm 16:8 ESV “I have set the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.”
So, whether you are engaged in a storm of change! Find yourself in the middle of a whirlpool of change! Or, maybe only in a slight wrinkle of change, whatever your season is, hold onto the hand of the creator. He makes the terrain so much easier…Trust Me 😉
Be blessed today, try and be a blessing and thank you for sharing time with me. 🥰
