Loving What Is
Many of us have heard the saying, “it’s easier said than done,” and we have probably said it a few time ourselves too. It’s one thing to say you are going to do something and it’s another to follow through and make the decision to take action.
When I first read this particular topic I felt a connection because handing over my worries to God and loving what is in the here and now is something I have always been working on. We tend to try and control every aspect of our lives days, weeks, and months in advance and we can forget about the present. We tend to forget that God can and will help us, but we have to continue to put our trust in him. And once we do that, God will handle all our worries and will give us the tools we need for everything. We have also heard people tell us what we need is right in front of us and I think that can be a reminder to take a pause and truly appreciate the present and what’s around us. We also need to fully immerse ourselves in particular moments to truly see all the beauty and blessings around us- to see all that God has given us- big, small and in between.
We have been programmed to think the future is what we have to live for when in actuality the most important is the present. God has created a beautiful world for us to enjoy for ourselves and with the people that mean the most to us. Soak up all the beauty and blessings surrounding you and trust that God will be right there to handle it.
