The mind would rather fret about the future or pine over the past -- so the mind can cling to its own illusion of control. But the current moment? It cannot be controlled.
Ann Voskamp, One Thousand Gifts Devotional
Our God is the great I AM. God in the present moment.
Only at the present moment can I come into the presence of God. Only at the present moment can I teach my child. Only at the present moment can I submit to His will. Only at the present moment can I give thanks. Only at the present moment can I slow down and savor my blessings. Only at the present moment can I be faithful. Only at the present moment can I build my cathedral.
I want to encourage you to not rush or merely get through your day, just checking things off your list, but to live in the present moment. Savor each moment. You are building a cathedral.
