2 Peter 3:8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
Lately I find myself thinking about what I am doing now and what I will be doing next year.I wonder what life will be like on the race and how I will be holding up.
One thing God has taught me in the past eight months is to know the meaning of the word TEMPORARY. He has taught me that everything here on earth is temporary, except my decision to follow him which impacts my eternity. After fully experiencing the meaning of the word temporary after my fathers accident I have become much more aware of my choices and my actions. I understand that my feelings of sadness, anger,pain,love,joy and every other feeling is temporary. I know that at times our emotions or circumstances seem to last forever and other times only seconds but I have learned that our God is faithful through these emotions.He doesn’t promise me that by following him all my troubles will cease to exist but that he will walk with me through it all. The word temporary makes me stronger, it helps me be present in each day and truly go through the day knowing that it will be gone tomorrow.
So as I wonder about my future on The World Race, I remember to enjoy my time with family and friends and to not hold fast to the things of this world, for they will not go with me into the kingdom of heaven.
