Are you Living in the Moment?

I'm thankful for the way God works in my life, and especially my heart. It started with a post about my bad attitude towards the snow. Yesterday we looked the word "forward" as a verb instead of a direction. Today I have a  BIG A-HA moment to share with you that can change my life, your life, and the lives of those you run into throughout the day.

Instead of focusing on the future or the past, slow down and take time to focus on the right now! Seriously, think about it.

If we focus on the family snuggled on the couch with us instead of those we've lost, how could this change our perspective. 

If we focus on the family and friends surrounding us in times of joy and sorrow today, does it matter what tomorrow brings?

Advent and Christmas is a time to remember we have a lot in our lives. At times it's a challenge to see the positives BUT there are always positives and good things happening in our lives when we stop, look, and listen. What are you waiting for?

When you focus on the hear and now,
what is the first thing
​you are thankful for, and why?
