live your life

have you ever had one of those days, just going through the motions?

for me it is so easy to start thinking about all of the little things that bug me and wish were different in my daily routine.

during my quiet time a lunch today i was reading in Psalm 39. verse 4 smacked me in the face.

"Lord, remind me how brief my time on earth will be. Remind me that my days are numbered - how fleeting my life is." Psalm 39:4

to some this verse may sound depressing, but for me it was so refreshing. refreshing in the sense that this season of life is only for a moment. that is is not important for me to dwell on the negatives, but to just focus on the tasks that i have been given.

i love how God brings these words of encouragement at the perfect time. no matter what.


as your going through your day, remember that the little things in life don't matter. doing the best you can, focusing on what you do best, and living each day as if it were your last is all we have control over. all the rest will fall into place.
