Summer is here...finally. Today I played catch up with my job. It feels good to throw my list away at the end of the day knowing I accomplished most everything on it. I find myself every year at this time reflecting on my life. I enjoy looking back and seeing how I am different now then last year at this time. A year is a long time but also short. Time is a funny thing in how it progresses forward, but in our moments of time it seems endless to look ahead. It will take forever for things to come...so it seems. Yet when we look back we wonder where all the time went.
Looking back this year is kind of hard. Last year at this time I was being "courted" shall I say by a guy. Not much has been said in regards to this for a couple reasons. One reason being there is not much to say is because it was going towards a relationship and then sort of died. Another reason being that for me resolution is huge and it was slow in coming due to a lack of communication. Needless to say looking back right now I see a time last year when I was being pursued and enjoying those first moments of a relationship when it is fun and exciting and you just want to spend time together...but then I have to reflect on how it seemed to slip through my fingers.
I don't want to end this being "Debbie Downer" because I have learned a lot this year through all of it. I can see how God was working and how sometimes we ask for things and in that moment God knows what we need and it doesn't involve what we want at that moment. I have peace about this and know that God works for the greater good.
