What is Five Minute Friday? Write for 5 minutes flat for pure unedited love of the written word and link to Gypsy Mama blog on today’s topic. Feel free to join us over there. Anyone can link to it.
GO
Change of seasons…we’re right in the middle of that right now. Moving from spring to summer, cool and bearable to roasting Texas hot and probably dry. Blooming flowers to parched, dry yards…unless the rain comes.
Change of seasons…graduations…weddings…changing relationships…children moving off to college…cleaving to a spouse, moving to a new part of the country…children changing from elementary to junior high or moving on to high school. Lots of milestones whether in “regular” school or homeschool.
Change of life season…just got my medicare card!! We are aging and the speed gets faster every day. I’m becoming invisible…seen as past my prime…maybe even irrelevant. Fortunately, I know that in Christ I am more than what others think of me…or what I think they think of me.
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever. Hallelujah!
STOP
Hi Martha,
I’m stopping by from 5 minute Friday. I am also 60+ but not old enough for a medicare card. We do have many seasons of the family.
Being a Grandma is wonderful. I have 3 grandchildren with a fourth on the way.
Have a lovely weekend!
A change of seasons certainly brings lots of milestones. I am assuming if you have a medicare card you live in Australia ??? Maybe 🙂
Nice to meet you.
no, we have medicare cards in the U.S….when we turn 65! that was my most recent birthday! it was the birthday you love to hate:) glad to have medicare (i can’t qualify for insurance w/o working WAY more than i want) and sad to be 65 (in some ways).
Well, thanks for stopping by my blog, Martha – I’m returning the favor. Yes, it is really nice to see another blogger in my generation! It gets dang lonely out here some days, wondering if there’s a place at the table for someone who’s lived at least 10 lives and enjoys reflecting on how God works through all those seasons. Nice to see you!
Hi Martha!
Stopping in from Five Minute Friday! I loved your post and your thoughts. I felt like I was right there with you in the words you used to describe Texas. You are very blessed to have such a big family!! You are chosen, loved, and blessed by the ONE above. Have a great day!
