Imagine sitting in a bus after 1am somewhere in Thailand surrounded by sleeping people writing online on your BlackBerry…that’s me right now! (except my text would’t show up so we’ll try a comment)
I wrote out a LONG post that just got erased (seems to be a tend with me these days) and I think as I was writing I started to focus more on what kind of awesome comments I might get-it became about me. I think God strips us of what makes us prideful. Tha time as I try and remember what I wrote I want God to get all the glory and if it even impacts one life it’s all bc of Him and all 4 His glory!
How often do we take time to stop and marvel at God’s goodness? How often do we take time from the busyness of work to make God a part of our daily decisions? How often do we take time to notice the lonely widowed woman who needs a friend? How often do we take time to notice the child who needs some love? Or the stressed single mom who needs encouragement? Or the cashier who needs a smile? How often do we look back on years of wasted time spent on the wrong things-on things that don’t matter and won’t last?
What if we helped the elderly woman? What if we took time to stop and love a child? What if we smiled at the cashie? What if we showed Christ to each person we come in contact with? What if we lived in the here and now and made every moment count? What if it made God smile? What if we looked back on pi years of life and saw all God had done…just because we took a moment to stop and look around.
God has great plans for each of YOU! Don’t miss what God wants to do through you!!I want to be…Jesus with skin on!<!–br>
