The Present Moment

As I sit and have my cup of coffee with Jesus, I’m reflecting on living in the PRESENT MOMENT. It’s still dark outside I can hear the trains behind me in a far distance I can hear the traffic. I look forward to hearing the birds come out and see the sunrise. I look forward to the neighbors walking by or jogging and waving. I look forward to the world waking up, but I still want to be in the PRESENT MOMENT.

There are times in our lives when we get to go to the Mountain top, or to the Sea or we get to see a magnificent sunrise, and those are extra special moments. But we were not made for the mountains, the sunrises, or for all the other beautiful attractions in the world they are simply intended to be moments of INSPIRATION!

We think, only if we could stay at this place, where we find peace and we find God, but we were not made to stay on the mountaintop. We need to find that place in the everydayness, in the moment. We need to find it in the day-to-day chores, washing dishes, cleaning the yard, driving! Because our God lives in the PRESENT MOMENT!

On this beautiful morning, I’m going to strive to be PRESENT in the MOMENT! I’m going to strive to see God in my everyday activity. I’m always grateful for those special moments where HE reveals HIMSELF in a unique way, but we grow when we can see HIM in every MOMENT. Look for HIM today HE IS right in front of you! Have a blessed day!

Beautiful message Monsignor Craig. “… we grow when we can see HIM in every MOMENT. Look for HIM today HE IS right in front of you!”
