Caught the moment

Caught the Moment 5x7 Metallic Print by OneSixPix.etsy.com
Someone mentioned to me about living in the moment - it sounded ok at the time...but it kept bugging me.
It should -
it isn't about the "moment", although, I have spent anguished and despairing moments in the past, when just to make it through the "moment" was impossible by myself

It is about Eternity - seems so far away, and most cannot understand it - but it is about eternity.  This is the moment to decide, not just where to be for all eternity, but whether to stay dead in sin, or live in Christ right now - now - you can LIVE from this moment on :O) 
Putting off the decision, drops you into eternity with no way out .  And it is worse than you imagine....likewise, in Christ Jesus - is more life, more precious, more free, more hopeful, more joyous than you can imagine.......it is a fact.

Truth is non negotiable.

the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by  Jesus Christ  john chapter 1, verse 17

  1. Amen! Many pain filled moments are not meant to be lived in but to be lived past!

  4. "Living the moment" religious comments seem rather pagan to me because God is eternal. I try not to obsess about past or future, but there are lessons to be learned there. L, P

  5. Such a good reminder as I am this very moment sitting on the floor writing out lesson plans for school. I am constantly asking God what He wants them to learn to be prepared for their futures. It is so easy to just 'cover the material'. But that is not why I do this! It's about preparing them to inherit the Kingdom of God!
