In the home stretch.....

So here I am 3/4 of the way packed and ready to go home and be with my wife and kids......My youngest I have not seen since June!!!

You would think that 4 years is not that long of time, but it turns out to be quite a bit longer then I thought it would be. All my friends lives have gone forward.....(Remarried, had tragedies..etc). I feel going back I am starting all over again...I do that alot (not thinking but starting all over)

I think I need to remember something and that is....No matter where I move or how many times I change jobs.....I am right wherever I maybe. Moving to a new town or city or state does not change who I am. Only I can change who I am or my future....So If I do not like where I am I need to figure out what it is so I can fix it.

Redeeming the days for these times are evil

It is Saturday and I had a real day off....Breakfast, a haircut and hanging out at the shop with Hambone. I went and spent a little time at Porter's with Chris and the guys. It was a good day just really doing nothing.....just enjoying time!!

Time is something we can not control.....we can not speed it up and we can not slow it down. We can only take advantage of what time we have. We can not go back in time and change the past....Even though I would not mind doing that at times to fix my errors.

Ephesians 5:15-16 "Be very careful, then, how you live - Not as unwise but as wise making the most of every opportunity, becuase these days are evil."

What it comes down to is new Christian or seasoned Christian....we need to live our lives to the best of our opportunity.....Every day!!!

"God give me the grace and strength to live for you everyday....guide me and direct me in your will and not mine....mine gets me nowhere!"
