So I like to think a lot. Probably more then I should. I seriously think one thing that holds me back in toa many situations is how much I think about them. But whatever, back on track.
Something that has really grabbed my attention since I got back in the work place once I got back to OH, is how much time there is. I know most people say that time goes faster the older you get. I don't think so. The speed of time doesn't change (as far as I know) so this has to mean then, that it's simply a mental thing that makes it seem that time has sped up. As I moved into my twenties I thought that I people where right, time moves faster the older you get. That is until this year. The realization of just how much time we are actually given in one life time in phenomenal! For real. Obviously when held up against eternity, the time we have here on earth doesn't even make a mark, but if we could just take some TIME to SLOW DOWN……and live in the moment here, I think we would discover just how much time we actually have been gifted with. We constantly are complaining about needing MORE time, yet, we never thank God for ALL the time He has given us. I think the problem isn't that we don't have enough time, but that we just don't use our time to the best of out abilities, or on the things that we should.
One thing that I know will be great about being on the WR is this. I will be using my time doing what Jesus commanded us to do, to be His hands and feet to the poor and needy. There is no better way to spend time, then to spend it doing kingdom work and spreading the gospel. It will be an amazing well spent year of my life (and who knows, maybe more then a year). 🙂
Learning about life everyday.
