Saturday

Good morning everyone.  Another week has come and gone and the weekend if finally upon us.  I love the fact that I get to wake up next to my beautiful wife every morning.  On rare mornings we get to laze around in bed and watch TV until we absolutely have to get up.  Its nice to take that chance to just stop and take some time to do nothing.  Normally it takes us getting really hungry for breakfast to finally get the motivation to get out of bed.

Do you ever take time in your spiritual life to just stop and take in the things around you.  Stop from your busy life even just for a few minutes and look around at the world God created.  The same God that created you created everything you see and wants to walk with you through it all.  Our busy lives can make us focus to much on what's going wrong and why don't I have this or that and why do they have that life.  If we focus on the fact that the creator of the universe created you and has made a world for us to enjoy in this temporary, short life, we can then focus on the fact that this life is short and it's not worth taking things so serious when a perfect kingdom awaits us.  He made the sunsets and sunrises to see his artistic hand when you wake up and when you go to sleep.  He made to cool autumn breeze to feel it on your skin and make you realize that he is always there with you.  He made the cold winter snow to show he can cover all the imperfections that you think you have to cover up by yourself.  He made all things for you.  Take time to recognize His hand in everything.

Time to get up and enjoy the world God has created.

Enjoy your weekend.  I know we will.  We are heading to Winter Jam tonight with the LCC Youth Group.

Grace and Peace
Ben
