Almost...To The Finish Line...

Today is day 33 with 7 more to go. I can truly see the finish line and and I'm almost there. My assignment was to give up Facebook/twitter for 40 days, but I also got schooled in lessons of life that I will carry with me forever. In 7 days, I will have an Independence Day so to speak. How many of you all know that Freedom is not free? I paid a heavy price for some of the lessons that I learned, but it had to be this way. James 3:2, "We all stumble in many ways. If anyone is never at fault in what he says, he is a perfect man, able to keep his whole body in check." No one is perfect and usually when we slip up it has to do with what comes out of our mouths. Keeping our mouths closed more often means we are listening more. Listening is one of the hardest things to do. We always want to give our 2 cents worth, shhh here's the lesson; sometimes our advice is not even worth the 2 cents. Here is the blessing, Proverbs 10:19, "When words are many, sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise." Even if you don't agree with me, thank you for taking the time to see it Jen's way.
