Now Is The Time

So today has been the official end to my first real week at my new church location. I have to say that when I woke up this morning I was excited - I was ready to take on the day. Sure, there are still lots of things that have to take place, some fears to overcome and whatnot - but hey!!! Why else do we live, but to live in the moment.
I keep going back to something that I wrote years ago about living in the moment.

The moment encompasses everything that we are, everything that we do, everything that we feel! It is only the highest moments where we find ourselves completely lost, yet content. It is where the music, sound, lighting, emotions, smells, visuals all line up perfectly. It is the climax of Beethoven's 5th, or when Rocky reaches the top of the steps. It is when everything is working...together.
I want to those moments everyday. I need those moments.
But what I have come to realize as truth...is that defining moments only come when I am not looking for them... but instead when I am simply lost... in the moment.


I am writing this as if someone is reading this - but I have no clue how to get people to read these - so I guess I am writing this for myself. I believe I will treat this that way - my personal journal. So there we go!
