I learned somthing new……

…about myself anyway.  I think  I have always known it but it became very evident last night as I neared the end of C.S. lewis’ book The Screwtape Letters.   I found myself getting giddy. And as i thought about it i realized that i really enjoy finishing things.   Goofy right!  I made myself laugh.   I like finishing projects, events, seasons, stages in my kids lives (especially that infamous diaper stage), books, Bible studies….and even bottles of condiments and so on.

 

But as i thought about this it started seeming not so strange.  Just as a runner wants to finish a race so i want to accomplish my goals!    So as  a mom i know my kids and hubby have been well taken care of by finishing off food we have purchased!   As i finishreading a book i am a little closer to becoming a more knowledgeable person and as i grow older and near er the end of my life i know that i can finish well!  I want to accomplish all to the glory of God…or at least some of it.   And i press towards that mark of hearing well done good and faithful servent!
