LOVING THIS NEW START

LOVING THIS NEW START

     What do you call this time of life? I'm not young. I'm not mid-life. However, I'm certainly not old by any means...lol!  So what am I???  I am at that perfect stage of my life. I can start all over. I can make new choices. Starting over...having a new start is so much fun. I live life at a slower pace now.
Not that I am too old to move fast...lol. It's just I have discovered slowing down and enjoying life is so much more rewarding. Maybe, we have to be of a certain age to realize that. That is truely sad though. When my children were still home, I was constantly running from one obligation to another.
Just trying to raise my children to love and serve the Lord. I don't think I truly took the time to simply sit and just enjoy that time. Now, I don't worry about the little things. The house doesn't have to be perfect all the time. I don't have to be accomplishing things constantly. It is ok to sit and enjoy all the things that God has blessed us with. When grandchildren, family or friends come...I simply say..".the dishes can wait...let's just enjoy being together."
     One thing that never changes is my God, my Friend, my Father...my Saviour! He loves me always.
I can never so anything to change that love. I can count on Him. I can go to Him with my problems, my sorrows and my concerns. When I worried about changes in my life...He said "I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world." That means I don't have to worry. The one who loves me is bigger than all my worries. I can count on Him.
     I am loving this new start. Just to think this exciting life started when I gave God my life.  Til next time...Just stop for a little while and enjoy your life!
