This morning i was reading in my One Thousand Gifts Devotional (pg. 94-95) about living in the moment. i have often heard that phrase and wondered how one did that exactly.
"God, today is the last like this'.
This place, this people, this moment -
It will never again be just like this."
All of a sudden the concept made sense to me. i will never again have this moment or this one or this. . . and so on. i can live this moment as He gives this-moment grace. i often have cried out, "i don't know how to live this life You have given me!" It's true; i don't; but neither do i know how to live this moment because i have never lived it before. Each and every moment is completely new, even though it may look very similar to the last or even the next one. It is unique, unexperienced. The God Who gives me the grace to live this moment will give me grace to live all the others, too.
