2010

It's hard to imagine we have reached the year 2010. Time flies. For most of my life the year was called 19...something. Life is one thing we all desire more of. Some live an abundant life in a short span of time - others live many, many years, but have little life during those years. 

It a real shame to waste a life. It's a gift from God. Life is something that no one wants to end and everyone wants more of...living gets to be a habit, sorta like breathing! Yet we waste much of our life.

Some people waste their life by worrying about things that never happen. No doubt we would be ashamed if we could recall the hours of our life spent in anger, unforgiveness, fear,  unbelief in God, criticism, and worry...let's be honest, that's all wasted energy.

Albert Schweitzer said: There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats. Personally, I believe the only two means of refuge from the misery of life is: God and God.

They say that in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years. Agatha Christie said: I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing.

It is a grand thing to be alive. Since we are limited as to years, we should make them count. If you haven't really been living, why not start now? Be blessed in 2010.
