Sweet Sister

Today I remember Melissa. I remember her everyday, but today would be the day that I would call my sister and say HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!

I ran across this photo on my phone this morning and it took me back to the very place we were at- Summer ’09 |Starbucks | Virginia. It was just us. We sat outside in the sunshine and just talked. I love this memory.

What memories are you making with your family? How will they remember you? Our greatest commodity is TIME and how are you spending it? Pastor Levi [from our church here in Whitefish, MT] spoke on this very topic a few weeks ago::

Death forces us to look at life & have wisdom in our remaining days. We are writing our Eulogy now.”

I know that I need more margin in my life. I definitely need to stop “multi-tasking”…I really don’t believe that “multi-tasking” is even legit….something always suffers. Yesterday I took a “technosabbath” [as Levi put it] and it was really good for my soul. To be present. To CREATE.

I challenge you today to be intentional about your TIME. We don’t have a lot of it….and we will all surely die. What will people say about our life? And most importantly….What will the Creator of our souls say to us when we meet Him face to face?

This was my birthday post to my sweet sister Melissa last year…..feel free to read it.
