More Than Me

I don't know why it's so easy to think that all I have to do is run faster or work harder and everything will be ok . . . then I look up to notice that I've run right by where I was trying to go. Maybe it's because it's easier to fill up my life with good things than to let myself realize and think about the things that I don't have. But when I take a moment and allow myself to be still, I see just how much I do have and the ways in which the Lord has touched me, changed me and made me more than I am alone.

What I do know is that I never feel alive or whole without taking those moments to step back and see Him in my life. I think the same goes for all the people that have been instruments in the hands of the Lord to make me who I am. I am full when I am still and allow myself to feel the love of the Lord from family and friends and for family and friends.

I guess that's it - simply I hope that they each know how much I love them and how much the Lord loves them. I would not be me and could not be more than I am without each and every person in my life. Les amo a todos - con un corazon lleno, les agradezco el amor y brazos extendidos que siempre me han ofrecido.
