Last year I wrote this. Still finding the beauty in taking a moment to give thanks for my now.
"Pause and Reflect"
You can't get so wrapped up thinking about where you would rather be that you stop appreciating and making the most out of where you are. I heard that recently and it resonated. It's good to have a plan. Good to look forward towards where you want to go. That doesn't mean you stop living in the moment. It doesn't mean you stop seeing the progress, the blessings, the good right here and now. It's important to appreciate the present. The wonderful moments that are unfolding for you now. The good feelings, the beautiful sunrises and sunsets, the texts from friends, the quiet times, the hugs from your kids, the late night talks, watching your kids grow, the early morning prayers, the late evening walks… It all matters. What does your list look like? You have one, but you might just be overlooking it because you are constantly on to the next and forget to pause. You forget to breathe. You forget to give thanks. Pause for a moment and take it all in. I've said it before, you might just realize the greener grass you are searching for you have been standing on all along.
Believe In The Unbelievable that is YOU and my prayer for you today is that you are able to just stop for a moment to quietly reflect on your world. "Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." (Philippians 4:8)
Have a blessed day everyone.
