Making a Difference

Last week just blew by me and although I spent lots of time on the front porch I missed sharing with you on my blog spot. So here I am Sunday evening, the sun is setting, it's cooling down, and I am thinking about what to

write about.

 Life is flying by at breakneck speed these days. I don't know if it is just me or this season of my life, or I am just so busy packing in each day that they just roll into each other until it is Sunday again.

Whew!!!!!! What boggles my mind is that I used to work 40 or more hours a week and I think...how did I do that and get anything else done...but some how I did. Now, retired, I get to do 168 hours a week what I want to do...there is a big difference. Need I say I am grateful...smile. Well, these days I do get to choose how I spend my time. I try to make each day count don't you? Life is really meant to make a difference...what I mean by that is, when we find out that life is more than just about us...we will want to make a difference...and leave this world a better place.

What I am witnessing lately is a generation that is taking responsiblity for raising up their children to make a difference in the world they live in. I believe praying has made that difference. Many have purposed to ask God for this next generation. First of all, that their hearts be turned to Him. So He can bless them who will choose to obey and follow His Word, and choose His Son Jesus Christ. To live up to the highest calling of knowing Him and making Him known. That is a generation after God's own heart for sure. A generation full of passion and fire with intention of making a difference.

Yes, Lord, walking in the way of Your laws, we wait for You; Your name and renown are the desire of our hearts. Isaiah 26: 8

Living on purpose... to pray daily for the next generation to make a difference for God's glory and honor. Won't you join me???

Simply His,
