NOW!!

I have been working on not rushing and today, while rushing to meet up with a friend, the Holy Spirit reminded me about a comment I made on facebook about NOW being the only perfect moment. Sometimes I think in "What If's. What if I had left 5 minutes earlier like I was supposed to? What if I had started doing such and so last week? What if I had done that in the first place? The problem with "What If's" is that they focus on the past. The truth of the matter is that 5 minutes ago have passed, last week is gone, and I did not do that thing in the first place. It is important to move from the past and not dwell on it. I find comfort in knowing that perfect moments only exist in the present. So when I look back at that 5 minutes or last week I no longer need to fret about it being a perfect moment missed. What I am now responsible for and should focus on is the NOW moment. Maybe there is something in your life that you keep pondering "What If's" about. I want to encourage you to turn your focus to the present and do that thing while it is on your mind and while you have the chance. You have not missed the opportunity, for the opportunity is NOW!!
