I thought I would list some observations about my own behavior patterns over the years.
As we all walk our road, with or with out the Lord, we do, some slower than others, mature. We also recognize that as we mature we grow as people and into something new. Some of these changes are really tragic, others comical. All in all I am still looking at them from the end to the beginning and, I am blessed enough to be able to laugh at them. Feel free to add on some of your own in the comments.
As the week continues I will add more as they come to me.
This posted started because of this first observation…
You know you are maturing when:
That bottle of Sunny-D looks better than the bottle of premixed margaritas… (can we say alcohol tolerance?)
You have a craving for vegetables or oatmeal.
You tell someone ELSE that they have had too much to drink, and YOU are driving THEM home.
You notice yourself working the words Jesus, blessed, and Bible into conversation, with anyone at anytime with no concern to who hears.
You would rather do it RIGHT than do it FAST.
You catch yourself writing lists of things that you USED to do…
More to come. out of time for today.
May God bless you all.
May Jesus have His way with your day
