I want to live like that.

Ever hear the song, "I want to live like that." It's by Sidewalk Prophets. Listen to it or google the words to it. This fits me. The whole legacy thing. My biggest prayer- that others would see Jesus in me, often in spite of myself. I used to want to be a songwriter, but I could never get the music in my head to fit the words, so I stopped putting words down on paper. Music apparently plays a big part in my life, more than I realized. I remember a few years back when the kids were in Elementary school and we were driving somewhere, and a song came on the radio- I want to say it was Sara Groves talking about the legacy we leave behind, and I got to share with the kids how important that was to me. I wanted others to see in me the Lord. That was I said and did lined up with the Savior's love, kindness and grace. I like to think that stuck deep down in their spirit and that they always remember that. *****Still waiting for the December appointment with the specialist. Still hopeful that they will say everything is okay. Nothing really has changed, except I am getting my joy back and it feels good. I know you must be praying for me- thank you! I haven't had much chest pain lately and I am grateful, it allows me more time to not think of foo foo stuff (my words for wasted things that suck my time from me) and to focus on living life more = I want to live like that- also has a double meaning for me-- I also want to live as if this is my last day. Although, really if you knew it was your last day on this planet would you really go to work? Would you spend it at home with family? Would you travel somewhere? What calls would you make and to whom? Would you spend it indoors or outdoors? So when I say I want to live as if this is my last day- I think I mean, I want to get out and participate more in life. Be more active, spontaneous, humorous, a lighter sense of humor, not so serious :) I want to climb mountains, literally and figuratively. Just trying to decide what those may be. I suppose I should write out a list. Would be fun if you would make a list as I make mine and then we could help each other accomplish and encourage the other to get to work on it! *****Until the next time- have a wonderful day and make sure if you don't already-consider who the Lord Jesus is and what he is to you. Is your relationship right with him? If not, what do you let stop you on that?
