Changes, challenges and choices!
The year has already started out with changes. Changes in agriculture, finance, culture & faith. All of these areas effect our personal lives. We live in a changing world. Some are good..... many are bad! Life is full of changes; I like the good ones...like a new grand baby to our married son and daughter in law, the weather changing from several days of gloomy weather to sunny and warm, a newborn calf, the abundant harvest. We need to embrace change, realize it is a reality and be flexible to "keep from getting bent out of shape"! 😊
Challenges, they come our way. A 5k marathon, growing a new garden, trying to master a skill can all be challenges. They can be used to strengthen us, grow us, or do we can allow them to defeat us. I want to choose to learn and grow by them. I personally don't like when things are to challenging but am learning, it is in the challenge that growth comes, and I want more personal growth.
Choices! This is what it boils down to. How am I going to choose to respond to the issues of life. Do I choose to walk in the truth, to embrace the goodness of God and the blessings HE imparts to me in life. Do I choose wisdom and virtue? Do I choose to overcome evil with good? Do I choose to change the course I am on to adapt to the challenges of life?
I look forward to 2023! I hope you do to?
