The God of Increase

How great are his signs, how mighty his wonder!  His kingdom is an eternal kingdom, His dominion endures from generation to generation.  -Daniel 4:3

It's hard to believe that over a month has gone by since my last blog entry but it's taught me (again), just how fleeting life is.  You blink and suddenly, your daughter is getting ready to graduate from 8th grade, find a few gray hairs that you swear weren't there yesterday and you begin to wonder what God's purpose is for your life because there seems to be more to see looking backward than looking forward.

God didn't take a break while I did.  All around me continue to be messages of "follow your dream", "do something you love", "live your best life" and "find your passion".  Each time something pops up, I'm reminded that this is a time in my life for introspection.

Life goes on whether you're ready for it or not.  There have been many blessings in the last month.  My daughters continue to show me that they are becoming amazing young women and can do so much more than I could at their age and understand more about their relationship with God than I might even know now!  God truly is the God of increase and I pray that my girls will be blessed with that increase.  Somehow, too, I know that God has something waiting in the wings for me.  In His time, not in mine.

For now, I know that I need to return to these daily devotions and pray about the days ahead.

I hope you've been living your Best Life days!
