Not going to try

 The last several months I have been thinking a lot about life. Not only how short it is but also how we truly don’t know the moment when we will draw our last breath. Most people you talk to have some form of a goal or a dream they would like to fulfill within their lifetime. there has been several times in my adult life where I have questioned what mine was. 


It is so easy to take the thing you are best at and simply suspect that that is what God wants you to do with your life. I can’t say that I have many talents to pick from. Writing his probably my most obvious one. But when I think about what God has genuinely called me to do in life, I really do believe that more than writing, more than being a homeschool mom, more than being a confidant to many people, more than being a help meet... I believe what God has asked me to do recently is something so simple. I believe He wants me to love people. Love them when they don’t understand love. When they don’t love themselves. Love them when they don’t love me. I have always had my head in the sand I guess, the past 32 years of my life. I’ve always thought that Christians would get along and be kind to each other. But something I've learned is that can be the farthest thing from reality. How will the world know and believe in the gospel if we don’t have and show love? Some people won’t want the attention, kindness or love, but you can still be refrain from gossiping. You can send them a card. You can send them a just because gift. You can do the greatest act and get on your knees and pray for them. A praying friend is a true one. 


I pray you will ask God what He wants you to do with the word LOVE. I am.
