Each And Every Moment Counts

This week 55 people from our church had the privilege of traveling to Panama City, FL for the BigStuf Conference . From Sunday thru Wednesday we participated in times of worship, teaching, sharing, devotions and recreation.

The theme for this year was, "Time". If you were to tell the story of your life, would it be a compelling one? Are you merely existing? Are you caught up in past negative thoughts that are discouraging you from enjoying the present and preventing you from moving, in a healthy way, into the future. Are you too busy? Are there time-stealing activities preventing you from having adequate times of rest.

As human beings with free will, God has given each one of us a choice as to whether or not we follow Him or deny Him. If we have chosen to follow Him, it is important for each one of us to make the most of each and every moment. Instead of dwelling on issues from the past or dreaming about an idyllic future, it is important to make the most of today. It is my hope and prayer that each one of us chooses to thank God for today and uses it to bless others and give glory to Him. We need to be sensitive to opportunities He provides that sometimes go unnoticed. One amazing thing to remember about God is that He loves you more than you can possibly imagine. He cares about every detail of your life. In return you (we) should use each and every moment for Him.

This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it (Psalm 118:24).
