Read Joce’s entry about growing up..
I guess this is an issue that’s very close to many of our hearts. sometimes i feel sad that it’s a chance that our growing up is going to compromise on the things that we have held on for so many years of childhood. but apparently as we grow older, things do change. or maybe the things hadn’t changed, the way we look at them did. I guess I’m at this ‘interval age’. I’m looking at the people (older than me) graduating, getting their jobs, meeting their partners, having greater responsibilities and priorities. it’s not their fault that certain things are no longer number 1, some things just require their attention more than some things that used to be first. Will I change the same way too? As God brings me higher, further in my walk, am I going to compromise on these things that used to be so important? Or maybe I should call it sacrifice. even so, it is difficult to let go of the times we had together.
IThis is probably one of the reasons I’m afraid to grow up. However, I thank God for all those things and memories and wonderful experiences He had placed in my life. I’ve had fun, and I’ve grown. And I’m going to be ready, when the time comes for God to bring me to even greater experiences. It’s not going to be easy to let go, but I know there are greater things He installed for me, and the only way there, is to trust Him.
All things said, it still won’t be easy. God, I trust in You.
