I Still Have a Lifetime

Have I lived a meager existence? It hit me about how little I had actually done in life thus far. Sure I went to college, have done some traveling, and worked at a couple of resume building jobs. But as I sat there, talking with my boss, there a little envy in my blood stream.

She has countless travel experiences and a resume that goes on for miles. Why couldn’t I have that already? Almost all my trips and jobs are meager in comparison. Then to top it off she also has two grown children and a successful 30 year long marriage. What would it feel like to be in that stage of life?

Whoa! Hold on Summer. You aren’t even 25 yet (not for a little over a month anyway). You haven’t even lived long enough to do half of those things.

I’m not sure, if in the grand scheme of things, I’ve accomplished all the things I should have. I know I have messed up my walk with Christ. Thankfully my journey is not over. There will still be more opportunities. More times to share, more times to travel, to work, and to experience.

There are a few stamps in my passport of the United States and at least a 2 page resume. So maybe the rest of the stuff is just more to look forward to, for the future. There have been some opportunities to share God’s love. Although, I haven’t taken enough of them, and I sure hope there is more. After all, I still have the rest of my life, God’s not done with me yet.
