What really matters in life? We all have different answers to this question, as there really is no right or wrong answer, different things consume our different lives. We are all so different in so many ways. But what is it you are living for? Are you living today anticipating tomorrows activities? or what you are gonna do next week or next month perhaps? Are you exited for a specific upcoming concert, trip, family member coming to visit, or night at your friends house? or maybe You're exited to drive when You're old enough, or your anxious to get a boyfriend/girlfriend, or You're dreaming about the day you'll be married. Maybe you're thinking about traveling around the world preaching the gospel and laying hands on the sick and watching them recover, raising the dead, making the lame walk, etc (so it says in Matthew and Mark and in the great commission). While all of these things are absolutely wonderful to think about, and we should absolutely have dreams for our future we should also have plans for now and today. I'm not at all one bit saying not to dream, I'm a dreamer myself! I know one day all my dreams will come true, but I also know that I have to focus on the absolute today. Are you living for TODAY? What is it you are doing TODAY to help you get to where your dreams are tomorrow? One of my favorite quotes says dream for the future but seize the potential of today! or in other words... Carpe Diem! Seize the Day! You only have one time to live the day today, live today like it truely were your last, in you're mind you maybe thinking "its only a matter of time until....." we've all thought this before, everyone does it, no worries. But don't anticipate the future without grasping today, dream for the future but to get to that dream you must stop today and live, you must seize the day in every way you can! Don't anticipate the future and miss the time today, be thankful with where you are at =)
