The Finish Line

As I'm traveling down the highway, I notice this car weaving in and out of traffic, jumping in different lanes that he ended up going slower in, jumping in front of other cars risking a wreck and just driving at such a rapid pace. I thought to myself... That used to be me!! Lol thank you God after a million tickets, you saved me from that NASCAR spirit! I also thought to myself.. This person is driving so fast that he can't be enjoying the ride. He's going so fast that he's missing all of the beauty that surrounds us.

We move so fast in our lives, waiting to reach the finish line and arrive to our destinations that we miss all of the beauty surrounding us. Slow down!!!  Breathe! Enjoy the people in your life, enjoy your career, enjoy the success that has knocked on your door while you work towards the next visit!

It is a challenge to enjoy where you don't want to settle and these are the times God wants us to cling on to Him even more in faith. You are steadily progressing to the next season in your life, but don't miss out on the beauty that is in your life at this moment. We add stress to everything that we do, instead let's choose to delight in the treasures God has given us at this moment in time!


"The race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all." -Ecclesiastes 9:11
