Mantra for life

I believe that everyone has something that they are all about. it defines who they are and what their beliefs are based upon. Mine is based upon the reality that God is the CEO of the world and that I am not. I watch folks daily that struggle with that fact, and wish that they could let go and start living life without a fear of failure. I learned long ago that living with that huge piece of wisdom, has opened life up for me. It then made the 2 scriptures I use for my mantra come alive. Jeremiah 29:11-13 and John 10:10....basically that there is a future, a hope, and that God wants us to have a good life. I'm 56 now and used to wear glasses, was in the Navy, went to college, have kids and grandkids, have been around the world twice, have had many jobs, met famous and infamous people, loved and have been loved....and yet I knew that this was part of the journey that God has taken me on...I used to think He had done all of this to take me to one job that was just for me or one place that I was supposed to be...but that's not true...the only thing He wanted me to know for sure is that my wife was the one for me...she gets me, because she is so different from me. Life isn't about me , its about my life with all of you...you all make me who I am...so be careful...I don't want to be messed up and I'll do my best not to harm you.
