Guest Writer Monday: Anna!!!

Thank you, Anna, for your words today! They are a good reminder.

What time is it for you?

There is a season for activity under the sun.

A time to keep and a time to throw away. Do you need to free yourself by throwing some things away to make your life feel more peaceful? Either cleaning out some drawers or cleaning out your schedule?

This concept is what helps you make room for life. When you look at your days are you getting the things done that you want? The things that truly matter? Growing in your love for God, loving others, enjoying your days?

Lots of people will walk through this life just barely getting by. Get up, go to the bathroom, get dressed, have coffee, go to wherever you are going, feeling sleepy, come home, eat dinner, get in your pj's, go to bed, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat.................

"That everyone may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all his toil-this is a gift of God." Ecc 3:13

To enjoy life is a gift. What are you doing and where are you going?

"Better one handful with tranquility and two handfuls with toil" Ecc 4:6

We were created for purpose. Ask God to show you his plans for your life. Today. He has plans for you today. This day can be ordered around him. All it takes is Stop. Ask. Be sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit. He will add things in and take things out of your day. Before you know it you have fruit today, you look back and had fruit yesterday, you look back and had fruit last month, you look way back and had fruit all last year.

And it all happened one day and one choice at a time.

"Commit to the LORD whatever you do and your plans will succeed." Proverbs 16:3
