Every wish you took the time to stop and smell the roses? If you're anything like me, I'm going to go ahead and say...yeah you probably do; and once again if you're anything like me you find yourself so busy that in order to stop and smell the roses you have to actually schedule time to do it....
Maybe I just have my priorities mixed up. I'm not even in school right now and I'm barely getting time at work so where does my time go? I mean honestly...how am I so busy with absolutely nothing? I feel like I've wasted many days away, but I have to say (and quote a Brad Paisley song...) when I say that it was time well wasted. So maybe I didn't get the job applications I need or maybe I didn't clean the house. I did manage to spend time with my sister in Cincinnati, go over to my Nana's and just shoot the breeze for a while, bake cupcakes for some friends, and make two trips down to Kentucky to see one of my best friends and an amazing guy. So maybe the choices I made weren't the most responsible decisions but who cares. It was time well wasted for me....
Fall is a season of change (yes...once again I'm talking about change. shocker). The leaves turn beautiful shades of golden yellows, fiery oranges, and brilliant reds. The weather shifts from the warm summer breezes to the crisp and nippy autumn winds. Fall is also the time when mothers are sending their babies off to their first days of kindergarten or watching their sons or daughters drive off to their freshman year of college. Fall brings lots of firsts and lots of changes. It's a beautiful season and an enjoyable time for me. It begs the question though...what is changing for me? What is that God wants to change in me? Now don't misconstrue what I'm saying into something like God can only work to change me in the fall. You'd be stupid to think that's what I'm saying. All I'm asking is what is it that God wants to change? I'm a flawed and fallen human being....God really has the pick of the litter in decided what I need to work on. What is it that you want me to work on now God? Show me my inevitable flaws.
