In case you missed it or are not friends with me on Facebook (my personal one not the blog) then you may not have noticed that I have been quite the state of reflection this past week. I have been looking inward and analyzing my life. I guess its apropos at this time of year to stop and have a moment (or 5) of deep thought about where you went in this past year and where you want to go in the next one.
For me, it includes a lot of writing, soul-searching, and one-on-one time with God. Instead of silent prayers, I have found myself writing and then I realized I was writing to Him. It is yet another cathartic experience.Although I would love to share my inner thoughts with all of you, I decided instead I would share something my best friend shared with me. It makes you stop and realize that sometimes what we ask God for he gives us just not in the way we wanted. He knows us better; He gives us what we need, even when we don't ask. So, whatever holidays you celebrate, whatever faith you subscribe, take time during these last few days of 2012 and reflect. Take a self-inventory, set goals, vow to make a change for the better whether in your life or another's.
What great letters and a great verse. Thank you for sharing!
