To Live Is To Grow and Change

What does your life look like? Is every day new and different or pretty routine?
Look around at your world. All living things such as plants, animals and children are constantly changing. I realized that last weekend when we visited our 2 year-old grandson. We last saw him in February. He not only has changed physically by growing taller, but his speech is more advanced and he is more independent than ever. (He is 2 after all!) I also witnessed change today as I was pulling weeds and pruning shrubs. Spring amazes me with the miracle of new growth. I planted about 75 hostas a few years ago and they are coming up everywhere, in greater numbers than ever.

If you keep a journal, look back a few years or even a few months. Are your thoughts and feelings different now than they were then? Mine sure are. I love to read, study, pray, and meditate in my spiritual desire to become more of the person I was created to be. When our time is used up by our jobs and other demands over which we have little or no control, it's hard to have the luxury of quiet moments to meditate and study. Through my new found journey of personal development, I have reclaimed my life and my time. I have moved beyond freedom.
May you have peace in your life this day.

In His Service,
Sandra
