Change A Moment


Over the year's, I have heard people comment, that when I hit my thirties, that there will be something that I would do different.  My father told me the day I graduated high school, "one of these day's, you'll wish you could go back.  Especially when you hit into your thirties."  And I have heard so many people tell me the same thing.  Well, I have been thinking about that in the past couple of day's.  What would they have changed if they could?  Apparently, there is something that they didn't get to do, but would do if they got the chance.  I'm in my thirties, I'm 32 year's old.  And I wouldn't change one moment.  If I had the opportunity to change something, I wouldn't change it.  Cause if I change one moment, I may not be content and as happy as I am right now.  I may not have my two beautiful babies, I may not be married to a wonderful man that I have today.  I may be a unmarried, very bitter, woman somewhere with a career that I don't like. 

Isn't it wonderful, that God can guide and direct our lives, if we just take the moment and listen to him speak to us.  God guided me down the path I'm on today and I'm very happy with everything that he has done for me.  And I'm more than happy that he took control of my life when I was so very young and kept me in his arms.  I was probably the only teenager in high school, who had a bible in her purse, if there was other's, I never heard of them.  I allowed God to be my guide and direct my life in the way he wanted it. 

I wouldn't go back and change things at all.  I wouldn't want to start over.  I'm satisfied with the way my life has turned out for me.  I'm thrilled that I have the chance to homeschool my children, I'm thankful that I get to give my kids a hug whenever they need one, I'm thrilled that I'm in such a wonderful, loving relationship with my husband and I'm thrilled that God is still in control.

Many Blessings,

I have thought about this myself. I have many ask me if you could change the fact that you married who you did and had the kids the way you did would you?? my answer is NO.. I would not go back and change anything. Other than having my tubes tide.. I wish i could still have more babies..That is the only thing i would change. Even there dad leaving the way he did I would not change that. I have grown so much since he left, the kids have grown so much since he left. things have been hard yes. I have had my ups and downs yes.. But God has showed himself to be there when i need him the most. Like you I was told the same thing.. ONE of these days.. well i am 37 mother of five teenagers that i am with all day long, I homeschool them. we work together cleaning houes. WE are together all the time. It is the best.. I love my kids.. They are the best part of me... I am thankful that i have them..
God bless
