That means I will have lived on this earth for a quarter of a century.
There is no getting around that fact.
Another fact that will not go away, is that I will never be a child again.
It is time to embrace this whole "adulthood" thing.
"When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things." ~ I Corinthians 13:11
So I will put away childish things because I'm a big girl and "I've got this," right?
After all, I can cook, drive, and take care of things on my own, thank you very much!
Or perhaps ^that^ is a childish attitude I must put away.
Because, "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights," (James 1:17a)
And Jesus said: "I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing." (John 15:5)
And "he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee." (Hebrews 13:5b)
I have nothing my Father has not given me, and can do nothing His Son does not give me grace to do.
My Father has taken good care of me all my life. There is no reason He would stop now!
So I won't worry about the next 25 years, because after all- He's got this.
"Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord his God:"
~Psalm 146:5~
