“We’re going through a phase, but it’s lasting a life time”. I had to chuckle when I heard that today because do you ever hear people say “oh you are just like when you were a kid?” We all trust we can mature as we age, but that isn’t always the case. Some people remain static in their attitude and personality for their entire life.

Wouldn’t it be magnificent if as we matured in both age and knowledge, we could all adopt the QSS theory; quick to “hear” (not just listen), slow to speak and slow to anger. What a wonderful world it would be for not only those immediately around us, but those who come into our sphere on a daily basis.

A gift we all have from God is a quote which I scripted from bible study today,” your relationship with God is not based on how hard you hold onto Him, but His strong grip on you.” Isn’t it wonderful that even when we loosen our grip or let go and give up, God is still holding us in His might? Psa 46:1” God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.”
