Sharing a bite from the dessert of my day:
We waste our lives
when we do not pray
and think
and dream
and plan
and work
toward magnifying God
in all spheres of life.
God created us for this:
to live our lives in a way
that makes him look more like the greatness
and the beauty
and the infinite worth
that he really is.
In the night sky of this world
God appears to most people,
if at all,
like a pinprick of light
in a heaven of darkness.
But he created us and called us
to make him look like what he really is.
This is what it means to be created in the image of God.
We are meant to image forth in the world
what he is really like.
~ John Piper, Don't Waste Your Life

Annesta,
I really appreciate your words and your comments. It's so nice to know that my little scratchings on this blog aren't merely echoing in outer space, but that someone is blessed. :D
Thanks again...
