stop. play. fast forward. rewind. pause.

This post might be kind of vague... but, maybe that's how life seems sometimes. Today has been a little strange... and I feel like a blog post is in order. Life is busy to be sure... but, the question is... the right kind of busy? Are you pursuing things of purpose and eternal significance? Do you make time to invest in people? Do you have time to dream and process life? Are you doing what you are passionate about? Is there margin in your life for rest? I think that sometimes we find ourselves at a self-imposed "stand-still"... oh, yes... we may be "busy" in the hustle and bustle of life... but, that doesn't mean we are being purposeful and fulfilling God's call on our lives. Or, maybe we forget that we have the ability to make choices and to extravagantly trust God. Life does not have to be the same forever... with God, the possibilities are endless. But, sometimes we might limit God's "doing a new thing" in our lives... because we simply forget that there is and could be more. (or different) I also believe that many times we allow ourselves to be limited by the lives of those most dear to us. And, tonight, I feel God stirring something new in my heart... change may be in order. Every life has a different story with different passions to go different places and to impact different people. This is nothing to be afraid of... but rather something to embrace. We have one life to live... are you living it?
