Going to try to keep this very short and sweet.. I attended Church yesterday and our wonderful minister did a sermon on " The Present"
Here I was thinking hey Christmas we are talking about the gift that Jesus gave to all of us ... Well was I slightly wrong
Pastor Brian said this that stuck like two arrows thru the heart
" Yesterday is History , Tomorrow is a Mystery but today is "THE PRESENT"
The sermon was based on living for the moment and trying not to live in the past (with our mistakes ) because the gift from God was Jesus to us ... Not to live in the future because we do not know what happens from second to seconf from minute to minute from day to day ...
This has made we kinda wake up because I had the oppertunity yesterday to live in a moment that I can never have again ...
I took my mom that is 58 years old to her first NFL game yesterday even though was heart was broken because I wanted my wife to be there whom is on vacation in Omaha, NE -- God made it possible for me to share this experience, this moment, the memory with my mom...
So in closing Thank You God for showing me in the cloud of darkness that you can shine upon me and give me " The Present " even though I couldn't see it right in front of me
