Later
Good Morning/Evening!
WELCOME TO FEBRUARY...
The end of January gave us a lot to carry into the new month, but for the love of God, we don’t have to walk this path alone. Heartbreaking tragedy hit the Lone Pilgrim community and the Anderson/Bobbitt family. My family on my mother’s side. It sent emotional shockwaves near and far. I read this and thought I would share it with you..
Later...we say it so easily. “I’ll call later.” “Let’s talk later.” “We’ll do it another day.” We assume time is patient, as if it’s waiting for us to catch up. But it isn’t. Moments don’t belong to “later.” They belong to now. Because one day, later means the chance is gone. The voice you meant to hear is silent. The face you planned to see exists only in memory. What felt endless suddenly feels finished. Later turns into regret far faster than we expect. So speak while you can, show up while it still matters, say what needs to be said. Love without postponing it, don’t live life on hold. If it matters, do it now.
I’m in my own spiritual learning process as I write this. I thank God for the growth He has guided me through and to. I trust that something in this encourages someone to take a step across the bridge that’s connecting you to peace and reconciliation for that joy that is unimaginable waiting for you. Surrender it all to God, He can handle it!!
