It's not quite the last day of the year, but it's one more day to reflect on this crazy, beautiful adventure called LIFE.
I like to think of it as being a book.
One year ends--and so does another volume of the Amber Series Collection. This one, I'm almost finished with. Just a few more pages to go.
Looking back, (or should I say reading back) on this chapter book makes me smile. God has done a million and one incredible things. Lessons, adventures, excitement, dreams.
12 months ago I was worried about school, jobs, people.
But...I was about to open a new book with pages & pages of what I call the best year of my life.
Doubts? Worries? Fear?
Check.
It was all included in the Collection Series.
(There's been 17 of them so far)
There are still things I don't understand. But if God allowed just 60 more volumes, what kind of story would He write in them if I did understand it all?
When one reads a book, some people might like to take notes.
Well, when I read my life book (live it), journaling is like my notetaking.
I have no clue what's going to happen in 2011.
I don't even know what the book cover looks like!
I have no idea about school, or a job, or friends.
I can't skip over to one chapter, though, without reading what's already in front of me.
All I can say is that I'm just a happy girl, learning to take life...
one step at a time.
The Arizona trip was another chapter which brings a smile to my face.
I wrote about it here.

Amen. Amen. Amen. Fully agreed. Thank you for your heart for Jesus! Keep shining and showing Him.
Great way of putting it. Who knew that me and you have both authored a 17 part series? haha.
Very very true. Love the analogy. =]
That is an awesome analogy! I love it and can totally relate! Awesome, awesome post, Amber! :)
Hope you had a great Christmas!

I love this post. :) So very true - especially about not skipping any chapters. It's amazing how God scripts our stories, isn't it?
Blessings on your new year, friend!
