Meaning of still: deep silence and calm; stillness.
Our lives seem so busy with things! Things! and more things! But why? But what? But when? When did life get so complicated? We try to pack so much into our busy day! Do you ever feel there are never enough hours in the day? Do we truly try to prioritize what really matters? Do you see what is right in front of you? Or do you miss the beauty of life itself?
If you could indulge me for a moment. Stop and think what would matter to you most, if you left this earth with the snap of your finger? Most of us at that pivotal moment of time would cry out to God…
Oh God No!
I need more time…
Time for what? To make that meeting? To buy that new car? Time to land that next promotion?
Let’s slow down the pace just a little. Truly slow down the pace! And let’s get real Still. Relax, close your eyes, take a deep breath, now exhale, and go deep into your mind and truly ask yourself what are the three most important things in your life?
I will share my list …
1. The Father, His Son, and Holy Spirit, because when I say OH God it’s because I am feeling His love and seeing the beauty of His Face.
2. My family as they have loved me through this journey, we call life. They have given me the most amazing memories.
3. My friends the ones who came and stayed when they had a choice to run. They supported my dreams and filled my days with light-hearted laughter. They too gifted me with beautiful memories.
Don’t let things get in the way of what is important in this life. When you feel that there are not enough hours in the day. Remember to go to your STILL place seek #1 with all your heart, soul, and mind. And be thankful that you are blessed with #2 and #3… Because at the end of the day if it did not make your list… it’s just things… things that can be taken away, things that depreciate in value, and things you can’t take with you.
But the things on my list, cannot be taken away because they live in my heart and they are etched in my soul. There is no value associated with them because they are priceless.
It’s you… my beautiful family and friends and of course it’s …
Him, It's always Him…
Appreciate the STILL moments.. Get in touch with your soul. And Just breathe.
