Unreserved

As the days go by, God has continually blessed the minutes in each one; yet my heart is hard to accept them without thinking of the loss that may follow. Children have such a sense of adventure. Every day its a new beginning, a new start, a time for them to try again at what they may have not succeeded the previous day. If they fall and scrape their knee, they are quick to recover and bounce around again. What happened to that sense of adventure as we grow older? Too many skinned knees lead to too many broken paths...and yet I hear the faint whisper from Him asking me to take everything that He gives me at what it is...a blessing. I have been made perfect in love and am therefore made fearless. These good things in my life are things that He wants me to have and to thank Him for. Without telling me the end, I must rely on my faith in Him that His desire for me is good and perfect. How thankful I am to have the assurance of a prosperous life, come what may, I will love you, until my dying day.
