DECEMBER! Already~ It seems like only yesterday that we were getting ready to open the pool and sharpen the blades on the mower. Now here we are, getting out the winter coats, going to football and basketball games and yes once again complaining about the weather.
I am even more aware of how busy and commercialized that our lives have become. It's sad really. We go to spend time with our loved ones and it seems the minute we get there we are planning on when we leave and where our next destination will be. Why is it so hard to just sit and fellowship and "see the beautiful"? I don't want my life to pass me by and then one day realize that I never took the time to stop and see the beauty that God has given me to behold. the morning sun rise, the evening sunset. A mommie bird bringing food to her young as we sit in our porch swing watching her fly by. A snow topped mountain, wiping our children's tear-stained dirty faces after a fall. What happened to the simple wonders of life. The thinkgs that used to amaze us are forever gone and forgotten~
My wish this Chirstmas season is that we STOP and really gander at the beauty He has created for us, and to be forever thankful for a love so huge that it cost us His most precious Son, Jesus. I want to be forever tender to how much He loves us~
