So it has been a while since my last post. Life has a habit of reminding me that there are only certain amount of hours in a day. (Yes I know that, but I am one of those horrible people that are time optimists. I always think I can fit more in a day than possible. So my writing here can get a bit of the feeling later, after I have done this and that. Well, I think I have to make a change. Not on my own, but with the help of God I will make it work.
One of the things that has happened is that one of my kids have moved out. She is nineteen and goes to the universety. She moved two hundreds meter away. Just a cross the street. My other kid is graduating highs school and I could not be a prouder mom. My twins are grown up and a new phase in my life is starting to emerge. The one when my kids will come and visit and then go home to their place. Yes it is hard, but I have to let go sooner or later. I have to trust that they have learned enough from us to know what to do. I have to trust God in all this. He is my rock and my fortress. Psalm 18:2 The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. (For me the enemy to get refuge from are my worries about my kids. By prayer and hope I can rest in Gods arms knowing that he got this.)
I know that it sounds like I am a person with no worries and that I got this. But no! Nothing could be further from the truth. It is because I do not got it that I need God my Abba! I need his strength and love now as my two kids start their lives on their own. It feels strange to know that soon it will be just the two of us and God in this house hold. Life is funny that way, it just moves on and we have to follow with it. There is nothing stopping it, not even death can stop time, because it goes on after we are gone from this place. God is the only one that can stop time. Joshua 10:12-14 Then Joshua spoke to the Lord in the day when the Lord delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel: Sun, stand still over Gibeon; and Moon, in the Valley of Aijalon. So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped,
So while life goes on and we with it, try to do what God wants you to do on this earth while you still have time. Remember that it stopps for no one. How you live your life here will show where you will spend eternety. I know where I want to spend mine. God bless!
