No Joke

Daniel 2: 22

²² ...he reveals deep and hidden things; he knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him.

Do you ever take life for granted?

I know I do, and then events happen that help us wake up.

I thought it was crazy, that when I looked at clock radio in our bedroom early on Thursday morning, and it showed 2: 22, as the time.

I didn’t know it then, but God was about to reveal something deep and hidden in my life just a few hours later.

I held my one year old granddaughter Maycn last night for just a moment, and wondered if I had taken her for granted.

I felt the soft smooch of my grandson Carter before he left our family time last night, and wondered how often had I taken him for granted.

What do you take for granted?

Do you just think tomorrow’s going to come, because you think you deserve it?

What’s it going to take for you to stop and smell the roses today?

How bad does life have to get, before you stop to tell all those around you, just how much you care?

In the final analysis, God controls the hour glass of our individual lives.

I get frustrated, because I think my life is in my control.

That’s a great big joke, and if that’s the way you think...then the joke is all on you, too...
