Summer is going by all too fast and I find myself wondering how can it possibly be August already! I believe it is a lot like life in that I often wonder where did the years go to and did I make the most of them? I tell my children quite often to enjoy each day that they are raising their children because you turn around and they are going off to college or getting married. Also enjoy your mate because you never know how long you have to be together. My husband and I just returned from visiting our youngest grandchild and every time we see her, we are so amazed at all of the new things she is doing. We so want to be here to witness all of the big events in her life, yet we haven't any assurance that will happen, so we know that enjoying the small things right now is very important! My question is: Do you enjoy the little things in life or are you always waiting for the next BIG event? There is so much joy and happiness to be had in each new day we are allotted here on earth and to me the BIG event will be when I meet Jesus face to face! So I ask myself am I ready? Have I lived my life each day to the fullest and been obedient to whatever God has asked of me? Have I been loving and kind to the people who cross my path each day? Have I passed on Jesus love to others? Do I feel that whatever I have done I will be greeted at the Heavenly Gate with "Well done, my good and faithful servant, please come in." A lot to think and pray about but is attainable if you live one day at a time with the Lord at your side helping you and rooting you on!
