Wondering?

Granny here,

Just sitting here thinking about life, what a trip and to think no want buys their own ticket. We are sent on this journey by someone else without being ask and then when we grow up and have children we send them on their journey. Funny isn't it? Or should I say perplexing.

Been learning some things lately that I didn't want to know although being alert as I am I had my suspicions a long time ago. Life has a way of doing that to us whatever we hope won't happen it usually does. Murphy's law is always in effect. Disappointments are always just around the corner.

Learning to deal with all these things is the secret to a successful life I think. It's not what life does to us it's what we do with what life hands us that counts. I must say I'm not the greatest at dealing with issues but I have been successful a time or too. With the help of Almighty God and his favor I have come through some pretty rough waters in my life but no rougher than anyone else and not near as rough as some.

God has been so good to me and my family although we have had some disappointments and although there will be others down the road He will be there to help pick up the pieces. Life is rough sometimes there's no denying that fact but there is a God that is bigger than any problem that we will face down here. He doesn't always come and swoop us up out of the miry clay but he does give us the strength to trudge through it.

Everyone has to face demons in this life but sometimes we don't have to go out and invite them into our lives and that's exactly what we do sometimes. Mankind always thinks "it won't happen to me, I can handle it" when in fact they are about to learn a lesson that will teach them far more than they want to know. Sometimes we better leave well enough alone and be thankful that our life is as smooth as it is without taking things into our own hands and complicating our life until it becomes as twisted as a pretzel.

God is gracious and good and He is constantly giving us information, examples etc. to guide us along if we will only pay heed to what He is trying to teach us. When we watch others around us destroy themselves by their choices in life and then we choose to follow in their footsteps we have not learned what God has been trying to teach us and we will pay the consequences you can be sure of that. For every action there is a reaction and that equation has never changed and it won't change for you either.

Life is a wonderment for sure, questions abound and most without answers but even with all it's disappointments it can be a fascinating journey if we watch our p's and q's. If we use our experiences as stepping stones and not drowning stones we will prove ourselves wise and life will hold many delights for us even in the mist of disappointments.

To God be the Glory!

Granny here just saying!
