I want to let you in on a secret about me! Well if you know me it is pretty well known and actually not as exciting.. But regardless here it is. I love sweets! All kinds! Cookies, brownies, cakes, cookies, chocolates, and cookies! No matter how much I eat or what I have done throughout the day I always have room for dessert.
As I was thinking about this I realized something about myself. I could be eating the most wonderful meal, and yet I am thinking about dessert.. Okay so maybe that's not you but I guarantee a good amount of us always look forward to Friday or Saturday.. Why is that?! No matter how good things are we always look for what is coming next. It isn't bad to have an idea of our future or to have goals but I think it is dangerous if we are always looking for the next step when you're walking through something else. As I have stated before I travel with a worship minister and I just love it! Tyler Murphy is just an awesome dude and I am truly blessed to be partnering with him in ministry! But even with these experiences sometimes I find myself worrying about the future or what is next..I understand that I might not travel with Tyler for the rest of my life, but what if I did? Why is it that when God is using me and opening doors and really guiding me I still fear and look for the future.. "Be here." I constantly have to remind myself of this truth.. I always have to bring myself to the Lord and just rejoice in all the blessings I have now. Too often I look forward for things that I don't need to know about. I need to live for Wednesday and I shall enjoy the entree. I once heard a speaker say "God's word is a lamp to our feet, not a flashlight to our future." How true is that?! God has us in the perfect spot. He has placed us here with our gifts and abilities exactly for today. "So don't worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today's trouble is enough for today."
