Happy New Years Everyone!
I know everyone says this, but I really can't believe another year has come and gone. I remember as a kid, my days would feel like millenniums- sitting in elementary school staring at the clock wondering when the school day would end..to now, feeling like I wake up for breakfast and in a blink am brushing my teeth and heading to bed. What is it about getting older that makes time seem to fly by faster? I think as a child, you don't have a care or worry in the world besides maybe wondering whats for dinner. As a adult, we tend to get consumed with everyday life and worries which in turn causes us to take things forgranted.
I don't really like making 'New Years Resolutions' and I don't claim this to be one, but this year (day by day) I want to slow down and cherish the little things. Cherish the moments. Enjoy those around me more and soak in the memories. But more then that, I want to be able to slow down more and rest in the stillness of Jesus on a daily basis. I desire to delight in Him more. To know Him deeper. To not talk as much and listen more. Lately, I have been so guilty and convicted of being more consumed with meaningless things, rather then stopping and taking in the faithfulness and goodness of God.
2011 is here now. With it comes alot of unknowns of what is to come, but I praise God that He has gone before us and prepares the path He has for us.
Be reminded today, as I have, that you are loved and adored by the King of Kings, rest in His Mercy and Grace and be blessed.
