Daddy Do My Socks Match?

Another birthday has come and gone. I'm a year older. The strange thing is, I don't feel much difference between yesterday and today. There is a lot of truth to the saying that age is a state of mind. When I think about getting older, I feel dramatically different than I do when my thoughts are focused on what a blessing life can be.

We have to make the most of every moment we're given. The book of Proverbs talks about living life to the fullest. Jesus said that He has come to bring life more abundant. It seems that God is trying to tell us something. When we focus on what is past, we miss what's happening now. We have the awesome privledge and responsibility to make the most of the opportunity we have.

I have a wife I love with all my heart who has helped me to become something more than I once was. I have two beautiful daughters who are an encouragement to me every day. I have so much to be thankful for and I plan to enjoy each day for what it is, another chance to make a difference in the lives of others, another day to make a memory and another chance to buld relationships, with God and with the people He brings into my life. The years bring wisdom but in truth, it's the days we are given and what we do with them that are important.
