Daily Writing Prompt

Plan Well and Take it As it comes

Daily writing prompt
Is your life today what you pictured a year ago?

Grass grows slow when all you do is sit around watching it. It’s funny how much quicker each year seems to pass the older I get. This time last year I pictured I would be an IFBB pro by now. That’s going to take a little longer. I also pictured that I would blog daily. With only a handful of days in the year left, by the grace of God that one is nearly accomplished. However, I didn’t picture publishing a series of journals with writing prompts this time last year. I’m very thankful for being able to publish these journals, and I’m pushing hard to have the series completed by the turn of the new year. Neither was I expecting a new job this time last year. Sometimes unexpected blessings are the best kind of all.

To quote a line from one of my favorite poems: “Life is funny with its twists and turns, as every one of us sometimes learns.” Plan the best course you can. Work it until the door closes. Then look around for the next best way and step to it. That’s how living is done.

(1 Corinthians 16:13-14; Matthew 24:42-51)
