As I sit and have my cup of coffee with Jesus, I was thinking about LIFE. Yesterday, my seven-year-old grandson got a Happy Meal, and in it was a miniature version of the game of LIFE. We played it for a couple of hours and laughed over and over again. Sometimes we can take LIFE too seriously. Instead of basking in the beauty of God’s creation, the little miracles HE shows us each day, we get caught up in the problems of LIFE.
To truly live means to have a LIFE. Every once in a while I would say to someone, “You need to get a LIFE!” But the life that God has planned for us is perfect! Sometimes we need to just surrender and go with the flow. There will always be things that challenge us in this LIFE, but when we allow Jesus in, there is nothing we cannot handle.
Today, I am going to celebrate LIFE, not just my personal LIFE, but the LIFE of my community, the LIFE of my family and friends. Today I will celebrate LIFE with gratitude and Thanksgiving.
Have a blessed day!
