Hello friends.
I sincerely hope and believe you are doing great and that you have started the year on a solid note.
I should apologise For my break from writing in this blog for over a year now. It was due to many happenings in my life.
I AM SINCERELY SORRY. I will do my best to keep up with dropping a word as often as possible.
A moment is Not enough to make an impact in some situations in our lives so we must learn to make the best of every moment. I remember the last phone conversation with my mum before her demise. She called me to find out whether I was coming to see her that day and wanted to greet my Son whose birthday was the day before. I let her know I wasn't Feeling well and promised to call once my son was back From school. I did not call back. My mum died two days after through a gruesome car accident. If I knew her time was up here on earth I would have not only called but would have dragged myself to go see her with my soN.
I recently observed an elderly woman pick her steps while walking on the road. It became very obvious when a car approached her that no matter how much of will power she may have, her limbs refuse her the opportunity to move Fast enough to keep pace with a regular youth. I imagine that she would relish a moment to have the kind of energy she might have had five or ten years before now. I think she will do quite a number of things quickly and differently.
The opportunity of a moment may disappear before our eyes like a vapour within days, hours, minutes or seconds. It could also be the reverse where the moments fade away over a long period of many years and you just realize suddenly. In which ever case it's important to learn to make the best of every moment, opportunity or privilege especially with people.
I saw a movie where a blind lady's husband died and she screamed, Cursed and Cried that he was her life, her sight, her everything. I had to wonder and ask whether she let him realise this before he died or she picked on the little things he didn't do right.
In the same way a lot of us use precious moment to focus on things that could be addressed lightly and later ahead of better thoughts as "I love you", "I appreciate you", "enjoy your Day" or "welcome home" etc.
My word to you this season is to learn and master the act and art of making every moment count in the life of people around you. As a believer in Jesus Christ you have been enabled by God with the Holy Spirit to help you live beyond the normal human limits. You can make every moment a special one.
ENJOY your moments. Would love to read your comments as I commit to bring words suitable for Total Living.
Thank you.
