Happy April, y'all! I can't believe it's already the fourth month of 2024. Is it just me or does time feel like it is moving fast?
It's mind blowing to me that this blog will be ELEVEN years old this month. I believe it's on the 19th, but don't hold me to that. ELEVEN YEARS. If you have been with me since the beginning, I want to thank you for being the one who read what I wrote in Georgia, USA. I am blessed and privileged to have a readership that reaches the nice folks in Ireland to those people in India to Canada and Nepal. Y'all are blowing my mind. I began this blog in 2013, I was 17, and a friend told me "it's writing, just on the internet." Eleven years. You have read so much of my life and the best is yet to come.
There is a song that says,
"Time keeps on slippin', slippin', slippin'
Into the future"-Steve Miller Band
It really is, at an accelerated rate it seems, but the truth is this year isn't going any faster than the years before. My calendar is just filled up with jobs, weddings, and other activities. I was having dinner with a friend, after I told her that it has been TWO yearssince I broke up with my ex (I can't believe it either) in disbelief she asked,
'What is time?'
Time is more than what is on a clock. Time began when God spoke the world into motion. When He said, "Let there be light" there was, and time began.
"For everything there is a season and a time for every event under heaven."-Ecclesiastes 3:1 ESV
God has a time ordained for everything. He knew I would be writing this exact blog post before the idea was in my head. He knew I would break up with my boyfriend two years ago, He wasn't surprised. You see, He is involved in each of His children's lives.
"The Lord directs the steps of the godly. He delights in every detail of their lives."-Psalm 37:23 NLT
He saw the beginning and end of my life, but I was even born.
"but with your own eyes saw my body being formed. Even before I was born, you had written in your book everything about me."- Psalm 139:16 CEV
All my days were in His book before any of them came to be, even if it feels like they are going by fast. God has time in His hand, and He is holding mine.
Stay strong!
