I spent the last two days sorting through the accumulated junk in the attic and my room. It is hard to believe the stuff I held onto for so long. I wondered as I dug through the boxes what I was thinking when I decided to save the stuff I saved. Maybe I thought it had some value. Maybe I was going to use it for research. I don't know. I finally decided that I needed to get rid of it all. There is still a lot to do. I know this. I know that I still have a lot to do with my project as well.
I am glad for this time to reflect. I realize that time is fleeting, and you definitely have to make the most of it. I can't let myself get bogged down by the negative news and strife that swirls around me. I have to focus in on the positive, knowing that I am not alone. I can make a difference.
Lord knows who I am. He knows me better than I know myself. I will continue to believe that this time of reflection will yield good results. I will be energized to do whatever the Lord requires me to do. I will lean on him, knowing that he has my best interests at heart. I will not yield to the bitterness that has threatened to overtake me. I will not complain when it seems that everything is falling apart around me.
I am blessed. I know this completely, and I do thank the Lord.
