Come to Me, all you who
labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and
learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for
your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”
- Matthew 11:28-29
I use Pinterest to create
collections of photos, which reflect how I feel about the man I love and the
life I envision with him. The photos are stunning with beautiful gardens,
barns, roads, food, quotes, churches, kittens, children and art. But
yesterday I realized that in creating such beautiful photo boards, I had
created a vision he does not share or believes is unattainable and idealistic.
Much of my life and
resources the past thirty-five years has been wasted on what is unimportant due
to my own stubborn and selfish attitude. I realized too late that
what is most important to me is the love of others and following Jesus. I
have always had big visions but what is now in my heart is family and to serve
others.
