Days Not Wasted

Daily Gratitude Year 8- Day 12: Today, I am grateful for days not wasted.

"The older you get, the more quiet you become. Life humbles you so deeply as you age. You realize how much nonsense you've wasted time on." -Quotling.com

What a simple truth is spoken in this quote. Every day we avoid nonsense and focus on love is a good day.

This simple scripture comes to mind.


"This is the day the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it." -Psalm 118:24

Each day is a gift. We can unwrap it like a present or we can fight for control and waste time and energy. One of my favorite morning conversations is "Lord, what do you have for us to do today." The years have proved true that while we are making plans, the Lord directs our paths. It is full of plot twists, but He can be trusted. 

Breathe in. Breathe out. Pause. Pray. 


"The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps." -Proverbs 16:9

He gave us free will... but He longs for us to partner with him on the journey. 

Today, I am grateful for days not wasted.
