a symphony to melodious reawakenings.
People say the twenty first birthday would be different. Something special, a significant date. Others regard it as a step into adulthood, a key given to explore the world, or just the freedom longed for, since young. Yes, we all have our own expectations for our twenty first.
Twenty first had finally hit me. My expectations? Nope, it wasn't freedom. And it wasn't the ability to make people think more of me. Yes, I had an expectation.
My twenty first was significant. It was the beginning to a new chapter. A key to a fresh start. But most importantly, it was the key. And it was that key that got me excited, and thinking. If the key was to open the door to a life of indulgence, a key to be misguided, a key that leads to a self-focused life, then it was best the key be withheld. Sadly, we do view the key as the very key that liberates us from all rules.
My expectations? Yes, the key was my expectation. But, this key that is mine, is no longer mine. It was best left to someone worthy of calling the shots in my life. It was surrendered to He that had made me by grace. The key was his.
My expectations? I would best summarized it in this words::
'..and He died for all, that those who lived should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again..' 2Corinthians 5:15
May He's grace be renown throughout the world.
enjoy, my twenty first.
