I'm sure you've noticed that life has a certin order of business. One thing leads to another and before you know it you're somewhere else entirely. Which is great. But why am i never happy with where i am in life?
High shoolers with dreams want to just have steady jobs and make money while high shoolers with jobs and money wish they had time to persue their dreams. (btw i'm comming off a weekend with just about no sleep so excuese me if i don't make sense.) Kids who are board wish they had big plans and partys to go to while kids who attend those partys wish they had time and sleep to just be. Even the bigger things of life. like working through pain. Or getting though school. Even singleness, and where we are in our Faith.
What would it look like to actually embrace and enjoy being where God has us, right this very moment? Or even this year?
I'm learning two lessons that complement each other quite nicely. one is where paul says that he can do all things through Christ, (the context of which is in being content with where God has us.) and that every moment of my life is mine. There is no second for which can say that can't call mine. i'm not busy. i choose to be. Yes. God has predestined my every move. But who writes the entries in my day planner? me. who says, "no i can't make it, i'm busy? me.
I want to capture every second and bring it to Christ; To live life to it's fullest; to not just take a slice but grab the whole cake! i'm tired of sitting on my butt dong nothing worthwhile with a blindfold on. it's my life damn it! and i'm going to live ALL of it!!!
