Living in the moment!
It’s easy to get caught up in the business of life or to always look forward to the next big or exciting thing, event, or day. But when we do that we can easily miss out on the sweet day to day memories or the sweet slow moments.
I often find myself wondering where the time went, or just recently wondering how August went by so fast. But then the Lord reminds me that the time isn’t going any faster, I’m just not noticing it enough.
Slow down.
Be still for a little bit.
In those moments where you finally have time to breathe – thank the Lord for those moments.
When we rush through the day to day we could be missing out on opportunities the Lord is giving us to share the Gospel. Maybe there was a person at Walmart who needed someone to smile and say hi to them. Instead they just got a busy person trying to get groceries and leave as soon as possible.
If we slow down, maybe we will realize that time isn’t actually going by all that fast. We just are finally noticing the little blessings in between the big ones.
Maybe, if we all slow down, we will be able to notice the little things in our day to day that God is calling us to. He is always on time, He is never rushing, or running ahead. He is walking with you in the day to day, so stay on pace with Him.
You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people’s feet. You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
Matthew 5:13-16
