Has your mind ever gotten stuck? The kind of stuck you can't seem to shake. It might be a thought lodged deep within the crevices of your internal monologue. I don't like being stuck.
While I would typically take a day to reflect on the past year, look forward to the new year, and make a few goals, I never really made the time to do that this year. But one thing was evident to me about the past year...
Merry Christmas!
What started as a chore (walking our dog) revealed yet another weighty reminder: my kids are constantly watching us. We, as parents, are modeling "normal" life (whatever that means) for our kids.
My daughters love to draw me pictures. I have so many sheets of colorful paper it's sometimes a bit overwhelming. They have given me pictures of baby bunnies, horrifying monsters, and structures of which I still am not sure what they are.
It's been said that we overestimate what we can do in 1 year and underestimate what we can do in 10. The power of water is a reminder of the power of consistency. As they say, "Rome wasn't built in a day" and neither does someone get formed into the image of Christ overnight.
