“For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” ~ Romans 6:23 (ESV)
I missed last week – I started, but once again got side-tracked. Let me tell you, life is just flying too fast past me. I need to slow down (too bad that I can’t slow down the clock)…
Last week I was reminded how precious life is. It can be over in a second. One of our managers out in the Florida field was killed in a car-accident on her way to work. She was my age. I really couldn’t get this off my mind for a few days…
We ‘fly’ through life; always on the run without taking a deep breath and relax. My dad always told us, no matter if you are angry, never leave the house without saying goodbye and ‘I love you’. He was so right; you never know if you will be home that night.
What also made me stop and think: I get sometimes irritated over really little stuff. Stuff that really doesn’t matter in grant scheme of things or life everlasting. So the death of my co-worker was another wake-up call for me; take one day at a time. Be thankful for the moments I have with family and friends, and don’t let the little stuff get in the way…
What are you thankful for this week? Please stop by my dear friend Lynn’s blog “Spiritually Unequal Marriage” to link up with other Thankful Thursday bloggers.
Thank you for stopping by today. Remember: let the little irritations go, and let God handle the big ones 😉 …
