I’ve been back 2 weeks from Greece and I’m storing up all sorts of stories for you ready to spill out onto the page…until then here’s a little 5 minute friday!
Here
Here in this moment. Here in this place. The song echoes through my heart and I am still. The echoes die down until I am aware of the power of a moment. The moment Moses chose to walk to the burning bush. When Joseph gave his brothers a second chance. The way Peter walked on water. God moves gently and powerfully in these “here” moments. He beckons us to be ever present in the here and now. If I find myself wandering to the past or the future too much, I’m missing out on the here. There’s so much to be had right here in front of me. The extra hug. The chance to say I love you. The opportunity to love someone well even if that looks far different than what they want. Here….today…holds a day full of moments to be captured. What are we waiting for?
Your turn! =)
How incredibly powerful! If you don’t mind, I’m going to print out your post and put it somewhere where I’ll remember to read it often.
Thanks for this reminder. We can miss some very big stuff if we aren’t in the now and are preoccupied with the then. (Hopping over from FMF)
Beautiful post. So thankful God is in each moment of my life!
Beautiful post on “here.” I too can easily focus of the past or the future ~ all the while letting the present here slip by.
It’s nice to “meet” you.
