Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the LORD that will stand. Proverbs 19:21 I love to write for the purpose of encouraging, showing love or concern, to bring a smile to the face of a loved one and sometimes to keep myself accountable; transparent. It is a gift from God to be able to do this and I thank Him not nearly enough as I should. Lately something strange has been happening as I jot down a thought or events to share – I seldom find the time to sit at the computer and then send them out or post. A lot has happened that I’ve wanted to share, a visit from two dear friends from Arizona one new Jodee and one old Carol. We visited, laughed, cried, strengthened each other in the Lord and made plans for the future of our Blog: selahforliving – I’ve wanted to write how I miss my old church family and friends that I miss. I’ve wanted to share of the love I have for those at For His Glory Community Church – the wonderful things that are happening there, our Community Groups, our shared picnics and dinners and events. I wanted to share how cooking has become another source of comfort for me – how the chopping and sautéing and the bubbling sauces or soups soothe my heart whenever I’m stressed or tired. Oh and of course I’ve wanted to share the antics of my grandchildren, their victories and struggles and how our Lord has gotten them through. Football and Softball games, Jazz Concerts, birthdays, my nephew Rico and his son Tyler’s visit, family get togethers and even quiet moments with my Honeybunch. All these happened and my brain takes the snapshots with a reminder to write them down; but time or lack of it keeps me from doing that. Time, in my life; is flying by – this year has flown; another Christmas is around the corner with a New Year at its heels. Do I regret the things I didn’t do or celebrate what has been done? Celebrate for sure – God has control of my life – I don’t want to become the old lady the worries of what didn’t happen or could’ve happened – I just want to be ‘Eve’ Daughter of the KING of Kings, wife, mother, Grammy, daughter, sister and friend. I hope that I’ve been that and if not I pray that the Lord would mold me into that by His love! I cry out to God Most High, to God who fulfills His purpose for me. Psalms 57:2
