New Destination

So often I think we get caught up in the future. What lies ahead what to plan for, what to except and so forth. I know lately I have because I will be heading off to college next year and get so caught up in the thoughts of what it will be like and what God has in-store for me. But so often we forget to focus in on the right now moment. To see what God is doing now and has done for you in the past to be content with what we have now. It is also a good thing to look back here and there and see where God has brought you in life. It is a crazy thought that nearly 3 years God rescue me from the hands of the enemy. To see how much He has brought me through and how much He has changed my heart and given me a NEW hope and a future and a NEW perspective. He has changed my life drastically and honestly I don't know where I would be with out Him. He has shown me an indescribable love over these past 3 years, that church is so much more than just a name but it is a living breathing body. That loving others comes from laying down your pride and accepting that fact that others are hurting too. To understand that His love NEVER fails NEVER gives up and NEVER runs out on me. I think so often we forget about our testimonies when we face storms in the right now moments. That all we do is run. When we should be TRUSTING God in every thing and in every situation be on our knees humbled and in prayer. And fully understand that when you faced storms in the past our God WAS there in the midst of you. I think so often too we don't like focusing on the right now moment because we might be in a storm or a season we preferably don't like, but look back hasn't your character been defined through those trials and tribulations? So shouldn't we be rejoicing and praising God for the right now moment too knowing that down the road this is going to benefit our well being? God is for us never against us so why would He put us through something if we can't handle it. The answer is He will never put us through something we cannot bear. God loves us too dearly to just through a curve ball at us. And I also think that is why we don't like focusing on the right now moments because we "feel" we won't be able to look ahead because of what is going on in our lives at the moment. When we learn to live in the present is the moment where we can grasp upon the concept that God works ALL out for the good of those who love Him. Because it is in that moment where we can say no matter what SITUATION or CIRCUMSTANCE say, yes God this is a difficult time the right now moment but it will come to pass and you are still God and you are good no matter what season I am in. Your promises remain and your love is faithful and just. So let us be a people to look not only in the past in the future but also right now.

God Bless
