This past weekend I went to the Fine Arts competition that I used to compete in when I was in high school. I was kind of humorous to see how uptight and highly stressed these poor kids were. The funny part was not the fact that they were stressed, but the fact that I used to be one of them. I wanted to shake them all and say, "It's ok! Life WILL go on and you wont even remember this moment. You won't remember all the motions to your human video...you won't even remember what you made it to nationals for." I want them to enjoy the moment they are in now because they will never get that moment back.
Why can't I see that, in my life right now, I am being that 16 year old kid. I'm so consumed with my problems and my life right now and a few years from now I will look back and not even remember what I was so upset about. God help me to be so consumed with you and the souls of the world, that my problems are insignificant in comparison. Lord, help me to enjoy the moment of life I am in right now because I will never get it back. Let me rest in the fact that You hold the world in your hands. Mountains move at the whisper of your name.
