Ever so often God reminds me of a simple yet life-enriching truth – remembering to take time to enjoy life. It means enjoying the moment, or the journey you are currently on. I often find myself getting sidetracked or lost in thinking about the past – it’s regrets and victories, or longing for the future and what it may bring.
Connie reminded me of how beautifully, with each day of creation, God seemed to pause and declare – “It was good” (Gen 1:10b). At the end of it all He said, “It was very good” (Gen 1:31). The truth is that He could have created it all in a moment, yet He chose to spread it over time and enjoy each aspect of His creation. I wonder if life could be more fun if we too paced ourselves, and captured the beauty of what’s happening in the “now.”
Today, take a moment to acknowledge what God is doing within you, to enjoy your kids, your spouse, your friends, your church, and your life. This moment will never come again.
Each day with you and the boys is awesome and at night I think about the days events; some are good, some not quite as good but, in the grand scheme of things. Life is very good
