Life changes, and changes, and changes. We do the same thing as people, or at least that's what I think we are supposed to do.
I can look in my past and see what kind of person I was. Just as I can take an inventory of my life as it is. Also I can look at myself and how I want to be. Admittedly sometimes I am personally guilty of remembering far too often of who I was. The mistake in that is that it keeps from seeing myself as I am now. I've certainly changed over the years, and as far as that goes, I'm different than I was a few months ago. I know who I want to be and I am getting there. Perhaps I'm closer than I think, but again, looking into the future takes away some of the joy from my now.
This life can seem long and arduous when we think in it human understanding. As a believer in Christ, I know the promises of eternity, but for the life of me, it's not really something I can fully comprehend.
Isaiah 55: 8-9 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Since I can't understand it completely, I'll have solace in knowing that God has something so wonderfully delicious in store for me that humans cannot accurately describe it's grandeur.
