Life's Moments

Life's Moments

David Rim

What a whirlwind! Happy New Year to all. 恭喜发财. I took January as a time for myself. To pull back the books. You know that backlog of adulting? Time was for a season of growth and self healing. With this time spent away from relationships made me notice something. I got a lot of my task list done, but the list kept growing larger. Neverending tasks made it difficult to just rest.

God has jokes. It's been a prayerful time of just throwing everything to God and see what happens. Right now in this season God has told me to wait.

Last Thursday I stood there in shock. My coworker just walked in to work and minutes later was laying on the floor convulsing. Now a week later on Thursday we get a call over the intercom for a child no older then two in the same situation as my coworker was just a week prior. And from fires in California, to earthquakes in Vancouver, and airplanes tragedies. This world seems to be fighting a battle that Jesus has already won.

Most of the year I have taken a time of being sick. Functional but not most of the days wondering what did I catch? Will this ever go away? Mentally, I was stuck because my heart felt randomly empty. I gave everything to God anyways and keep going down this narrow path. Not knowing, not thinking and attempting to be in the presence of Jesus.

It's been weeks, months, and years in the coming. I cannot contain the light I have received. I can see what God has planned from the first moments because it's hindsight now (20/20). Life's moments are precious and the work is being done with God. Apart from God I cannot do a fraction of what is occuring right now. God has called me to serve. Loving God, loving others. How has God designed you to do this unique design?
