My head never stops thinking and replaying scenarios and encounters I have with others. Today I am attempting to put away Christmas decorations, finish the laundry and grocery shop; to get all this done today would be a present to myself for starting a new year and my mind continues to think.
I re-live many daily experiences in my mind throughout the day and well into the evening, some are silly like what was said at the playground or did I ever remember to go back into the room I was picking up or did my children take their vitamins today. But a few things stand out more than the daily tasks I set for myself (which I might add are numerous). I had an encounter with a hostess the other night she mentioned her Grandmother had a heart attack on Christmas and I was so taken-back that out of the blue this girl says this to me, I did not even tell her I would pray for her and her family or her grandmother. I guess this incident really bothered me because it tops my list as I'm not as big and bold for Jesus as I should be.
So my prayer and thoughts today led me to the Vine and the Vinedresser I don't want to be the vine that bears no fruit or even the vine that has some fruit I want and desire the vine that as much fruit. And I pray that this year 2012 I allow the vinedresser to prune and protect me so that I produce the fruit He intended to be produced from me.
Happy New Year and allow yourself to be made perfect in His image.
