THE GREATEST MOMENT IN YOUR LIFE IS NOW

"This is the day the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it." Ps 118:24 NKJV

THE GREATEST MOMENT IN YOUR LIFE IS NOW


The greatest moment in your life is now. Not because it's pleasant or happy or easy, but because it's the only moment you've got. Every past moment is irretrievably gone. It's never coming back. If you live there, you lose your life. And the future is always out there somewhere. You can spend an eternity waiting for tomorrow or worrying about tomorrow if you live there, you likewise will lose your life. This moment is God's irreplaceable gift to you. Most of all, this is the moment that matters because this is the moment where God is. If you are going to be with God at all, you must be with Him now--in this moment. That is why the Psalmist says: "This is the day the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it." That is why the prophet Jeremiah said God's mercies never fail because "they are new every morning" (Lam 3:23 NKJV). That is why the apostle Paul said, "Be careful how you live...Make the most of every opportunity...Understand what the Lord wants you to do"
(Eph 5:15-17 NLT). Frederick Buchner wrote, "Morning, afternoon, evening the hours of the day, of any day, of your day and my day." The alphabet of grace. If there is a God who speaks anywhere, surely he speaks here: through waking up and working, through going away and coming back again, through people you meet and books you read, through
falling asleep in the dark. All of this means one thing the greatest moment in your life is now.
