Moment by Moment

3/3/11

As I continue to meditate on Psalm 90:12 Teach us to number our days, 
 that we may gain a heart of wisdom. I am beginning, by God’s grace, to focus on the folks who matter. Some folks are obvious---family and friends. Kingdom folks matter too. So I’m hoping that my time with the folks God puts in my life will matter for His kingdom. Working women (at least this one) don’t seem to have large chunks of time to give to others especially, as the physical energy seems to ebb. So……….I’m asking the Lord to help me make the most of my moments so that I really serve and glorify Him as I minister to others. That’s what matters.

Leaving work yesterday, plotting in my mind how to accomplish three important details before returning to “work” at 6:30 pm, Power of a Moment by Chris Rice played on my car radio. (K-Love, 94.3FM)

And forever brushes up against a moment’s time Leaving impressions and drawing me into what really matters


You know the number of my days
 So come paint Your pictures on the canvas in my head
 And come write Your wisdom on my heart
 And teach me the power of a moment.
 The power of a moment. The power of a moment.

Those lyrics sum up well the meditation of my heart about who and what really matters. Today, may I make the most of the moments He gives me because He matters.
