About
taking life in…
Psalm 42:2 My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. (NIV)
Our daily life should not be lived like we are watching a movie or
television program. Our daily life should not be lived as if we are
dispassionate bystanders watching a parade pass us by.
Each of us is to take life in and we are to count every second as if the
present second is the most precious second we ever lived. Counting each second
as precious is nearly impossible when the seconds of our life are filled with
pain, heartache, and trouble. When the seconds of our life are filled with pain,
heartache, and trouble, our seconds are not counted as precious, but instead our
seconds are counted as worthless. To turn our worthless seconds into precious
treasures we need God. We need God to pour down His healing love, His abundant
forgiveness, and His awesome compassion into our heart when we are in need. When
we have God in our life pouring down His love, pouring down His forgiveness, and
pouring down His compassion upon us, then our worthless moments are transformed
into moments of blessing. Even in the worst times, even in the times when our
life is ripped apart, God is with us and continues to pour His blessings over
us. It is because God is always with us we can take life in and we need not be
just a bystander. It is because God is always with us we can take life in and be
productive, caring, and loving in spite of many trials and troubles.
