We tend to want what we can not have, instead of appreciating what we do have. It is part of the human nature to see what "Sally or George" has and want it, but when we are able to say that what they have is for them and what I have I am thankful for is when we start having the freedom to live life. Be thankful for what you have and watch what happens in your daily life. Want less and live more, want less money and spend time with your family. Where you put you time, is what your heart will want, stop spending your time with other people and start spending your time with the people that you call your family. Things will come and go, fads will come and go, but your family, the ones that have stood with you, cried with you, lived with you will stay if you focus on what is important to you.
Isn't it time we start looking at the one that made us and stop focusing on what I want? I believe it is time to stand, it is time to grow and to change, but maybe that is just for me and I will share it with you on here.
I have stated it so many times before, change starts with you, but really change starts with me. If I am unwilling to change how can I expect to show that change truly starts with me. How can I share with you what change happens, because I realize the need for change. Today change starts, it will not be easy, but it will be a new step in the right direction. It is saying bye to the old me and saying Hello to what God will have of me. I need to put away the childish ways and embrace the ways God has for my life. If that is to be alone, that is what God will have for me. Just one step at a time, but I am thankful for the lessons I have learned. I am thankful for where I have been and who I have met along this journey and I am thankful that the next chapter in my life is going to start fresh and new. What a time for it to happen, just as the new year is about to come I can say Good bye to the old ways and Hello to God's ways.
Change starts here, it is the separations from the negatives and live for the ways God has for my life. I can't speak one way and live another, I have to live as I talk and that is where God is calling me to. Completely surrendering what I want and giving Him my all in all. Not my will, but yours Father in Heaven, maker of Heaven and earth. It can't be about what I want, but about what He has designed for me.
May God continue to show you the way as He is showing me how to surrender my will for His.
Thanks for sharing your heart with us. Takes courage to be as open as you are with your readers.
