So... I had to run a late night errand tonight that provided some insight into my relationship with God that I thought I should share. I was walking out to my car holding Dominic... it was really dark, I could hardly see in front of me. During the walk to the car Dominic just sat in my arms looking forward... even though he couldn't see ahead of him or what was coming. He knew that because he was with me that he was safe, and he was content to be in the moment.
I realized that I should be content in daily life.. waiting on God for daily instructions... trusting Him to provide and give me directions for whatever may come. I don't need to know what tomorrow or next week holds, only to know that I am following the will of my Father. I realized that my faith in God should surpass that of my children's faith in me. I have failed them time and time again, but God never fails me. It reminded me that I should strive for the moments I am in, not what may come.
I only have the guarantee that I am alive in this exact moment, and may not be in the next. I realize that I should be much more earnest in every aspect of my life.
