Have you ever really considered the cycle of
life through
the flowers of our gardens or
perhaps the tiny ant who carries off a crumb of
bread?
How about the budding trees of
Spring,
or the Fall, as leaves change into beautiful
colors?
They're all here for a season, then gone
for awhile,
But . . . they always
return.
This is their "Circle of
Life."
We, ourselves, have a life cycle
also,
though we seem to be unaware of it at
times.
Our daily lives are a routined cycle of
life.
We get up each day at approimately the same
time;
we have our coffee, eat, shower, and dress in a
timely manner;
we leave for our work journey in time
enough
to begin our work day; we travel home to a time
spent
with our loved ones.
For the majority, the cycle remains close
knit
with each and every day.
Now, think about the daily cycle of your life .
. .
Are you content with it?
No matter what our daily routine
is,
are we keeping in mind Who the Giver of each
new day is?
Who gives us the new opportunity each
day
to wake up and look at life with a new
perspective?
Do we wake up with a thankful heart and
say,
"Good Morning, Lord!"
Or is your attitude one
of,
"Good Lord, it's
morning!?"
Every morning begins a new day for
us.
A new cycle!
The beginning of another day provides
opportunity
for new challenges.
It is God's way of opening a door for us to get
a fresh start,
to make a new beginning, to have another
chance.
No matter what we think or feel, no matter what
we
have done or left undone,
without exception, God offers us His
forgiveness.
There is not a limit to that
forgiveness~
no end to those future
chances.
Always, God is ready to
say,
"Try again. My grace surrounds
you.
I love you not because you do not
fail,
I love you despite your
failures."
Won't you look at your cycle in life
today,
and look to God for
direction?
"Truly the light is sweet, and a pleasant thing
it is
for the eyes to behold the
sun:
But if a man live many
years,
and rejoice in them all;
yet let him remember the days of
darkness;
for they shall be many.
All that cometh is
vanity."
