what I thought about

Here are a few thoughts that I thought about while walking on the ocean beach the last month. A few of the zillion zillion zillion thoughts I thought about!

Contentment feels good

God whispers gently in my ear and I heard many things that refreshed and restored me a.k.a. great encouragements.

In 20 years it won’t make any difference about soooo much stuff, but what will matter is what I have done with what I have been given.

What is important in my life and what isn’t.

We are all individuals, it appears. Psychologists tell us that every person struggles to understand their own identity. 

erv, remind myself today to not be discontent as the Lord wants me to be happy and to do good while I live. Live my life joyous!

What goes on in my mind is invisible, undetectable to other people

Be humble erv or you will stumble

I think once again that God is God and God is unfathomable to me, God is way beyond my comprehension.

Ecclesiastes many times tells us to enjoy life.

We saw thousands of gals up to the age of about 26 wearing shoe-string bikinis. After that age, swim attire seemed to change to the far extreme of our age group were we saw very few folks our age walking the beach and the ones that did wore long sleaves and a sun hats! Very little skin showing! Age seems to change folks alright!

Real growth is about becoming more of who I already am

It's a great feeling to love and be loved!

Am I persistent and am I consistent

Why have I been soooo blessed and why haven’t I been blessed more or less!

Some feelings are indescribable; they are beyond words. Watching dawn of a cloudy dreary rainy day over the ocean was just beautiful to me; hard to explain. Very touching.

I think that some folks talk in code and I need to figure out their code; they just don’t talk straight out!  

We heard Dr. David Jeremiah speak in person every Sunday we were in San Diego. He is dynamic and is soooo humble, my opinion. I have thought a lot about humility and the ocean atmosphere is very conducive to that thinking; it’s very humbling to me. It makes me think what Dr. J says—We are not in charge of the world, but God is. I sometimes think I’m in charge and try to make everything work the way I want it, but it doesn’t happen. I try to manipulate reality; I can’t do it. Sometimes I learn the hard way that I’m not God but just erv! It appears that humanity really struggles with this!

 Hope is soooo great!

Our minds are amazing and hard to understand

And the conclusion of matter is: Life goes on!

Have a FUN day my friends unless you have other plans. (-:
