All I Know

A month ago today was my first day in the 30s decade of my life....

No, I do not feel any differently and quite frankly, it only discourages and mildly angers me when people tell me that my body will start falling apart now. I do believe that if you take care of your body, you can prevent some of the 'bad' stuff from happening. But enough of that...

I am excited about this new decade! Looking back at my own experiences reveals that my 20s were definitely a journey to find out who I was, if you will. Bad decisions, scary decisions, wrong decisions, immoral decisions; you name it - all of them were made. Thankfully, however, during my 27th trip around the sun, I realized that I couldn't do this all on my own and gave my life completely to God. Things have been crazy ever since!

All I know is that God is working in and all around me. Change is scary. Change hurts. Change is inevitable. I know that God is teaching me that the world doesn't revolve around me (yeah, seriously...I haven't learned that yet). When things don't go as planned (and I LOVE a plan...) it only means that something so much better than I had even dreamed of is right around the corner!

In my next 30 years (are you singing Tim McGraw?), I want to learn. I want to grow. Life is too short just to watch it fly by......

I'm singing it! It is a big, scary, exciting thing to let God lead. And like God's Word says...who are we to question the potter? Does He not have the right to do what He pleases with the clay? And who has known the mind of God? Who has been His counselor? Good thing we don't have to figure it out...although we do try!
