Do you ever just sit and think sometimes? You know, just really get lost in thought? Sometimes it amazes me how much God really reveals in thinking. I think one thing and the next thing I know, God has carried me on a thought adventure that is nothing short of riveting and breathtaking.
My "New year's resolution" this year, or really my promise to God and myself this year, was that I would try to be more intentional about living in the moment. Taking each breath, each second, each blink of an eye and making the most of it. Just really being present and not thinking about the next thing on the agenda. Making much of Jesus with every chance that I get. It is such a mystery and an amazing complexity to me how while so much can be going on in my life in just one instant, even more is going on in another's life and another and another. God is SO busy and He never gets tired or weary. Imagine that! I can't even comprehend what that would be like!
A favorite line from a Meredith Andrews song says this:
The thought of You is baffling, my mind can’t wrap around You
This human cup cannot contain Heaven’s glory flood
God is so endless and matchless that our human minds cannot contain Him. He is the mighty and living and sovereign GOD! Can I get an amen?!
So here's my advice, from me to you... Find a thinking place. One place that you can go that frees your mind to just think and let God lead your thoughts. I assure you that it will be one of the best things you have ever done for yourself and your relationship with God. It's just a time for you commune with God and say absolutely nothing. Sometimes we Christians get so caught up in talking at/to God that we forget to be still and listen.
Psalm 46:10
Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!
