The Value of Time

When we are scheduled to go somewhere at a specific time, then we can organise ourselves and be sure to be there on time.

Preparation is the key!

Find out what we need to bring with us, then give time to pack and be on our way in good time.

Today is a simple example, I have planned to meet someone and the journey will be by train.

Of course, the train will not wait for me if I am late.

Therefore, I am ready to go!

This can be a good example of life, where we are busy and taken up with so many things.

Yet, we are on a journey and when the 'call' comes, we must be ready to go.

What we bring with us and what state of mind we are in will depend on our preparations in life.

What a wonderful thing it will be to be ready to go and face God when our time comes.

GO with the FLOW

Our lives are constantly changing in so many ways that it can be hard to keep up with everything.

We get older and sometimes not so wiser.

Our bodies change. For some illness; for others, they might bemoan the loss of good looks etc.

Even our minds can age and it becomes difficult to be interested in learning new things.

So what can we do?

If we are wise enough 'to with the flow' and accept change as it happens.

Our belief in God teaches us to trust that God's Hand is behind all that happens to us.

Therefore, we can relax like a child and allow our Father to guide us and change us.

 To the positive mind, everything can be a lesson and way of learning how to love more.

Simply, go with the flow!

A Grateful Heart

It occurs to me that Gratitude is powerful; such a gift, and it is a gift.

We choose to be grateful and yet we need a helping hand to put gratitude first and foremost in our lives.

Perhaps what helps us most is a positive atmosphere.

When we are surrounded by positive-minded people, then it's becomes easy to see how much we receive and how grateful we can and ought to be.

Sometimes pain and weakness can be a hidden blessing, helping us to develop and grow and we discover how much we are protected by God's love for us.

Of course, just knowing that God loves us is enough to help us reach out and have a grateful heart.
