One of our exercises in Bible Study was to make a time line of my life, divided into fifths. For each fifth in my life, I was to make note of significant events, or traumas, in my life. Births or deaths in the family. Salvation. Relocation. Financial difficulties. Health issues. Graduation. Moments where God intervened in my life.
I made the timeline, inserted my markers - and I realized, there are things that will mark all our lives . . . but it is my choice what is a marker in my life. And maybe, the things that have "marked" my life so far, are not necessarily the things I want as markers in my life.
Either that, or I missed the whole point of the Bible Study
