Thought #8

I will cause you name to be

remembered in all generations;

therefore nations will praise you

forever and ever.

-Psalm 45: 17

"If only there were more hours in the day."  I've said that so many times.  "Yeah, when I have more time...[fill in what you'd do]"

Honestly, that's a cop out.  But I say it all the time.  Do I mean to make excuses?  Of course not but nonetheless, the essence of what I'm getting at is an excuse.  I will never gain time.  There are 24 hours in a day, 7 days a week and 365 days in a year; nothing has changed since it began.

So get use to it.  Get used to the fact that your time is only limited if you put limits to it.  Get used to the fact that your desire for God can be quenched anytime and anywhere.  Then get used to the fact that showing God to others can be done in the same fashion: anytime & anywhere.

Stop living like your pursuit for God is some high and mighty task only progressed on a Sunday of whenever your normal meeting is.  God is not a normal God.

Stop thinking you need to have it all figured out before you go out and tell your story to the world.  God will sort you out when necessary.

Stop overanalyzing this whole connection between God and you, you and the world.  The connection is simple: God is love.

You are in the right place; today is the right time.  And your God is right there with you.  So cause His name to be remembered in all the generations.  Do it by whatever means.  Do it your way.  And do it all to the glory of God.

Because then nations will praise Him forever and ever.

No worries.
