Slow down and enjoy life



In the  world of today everything is about speed and convenience.

When we are hungry we pull up an app and our food is brought to us by a driver. When we want instant answers we google it or better yet we ask siri or alexa. We have become accustomed that anything we need, is right there in front of us! Yet, know that God doesn’t always work in such way. Not having instant answers and convenient situations in our lives makes us think that God doesn’t answer our prayers.

Gods timing is not our timing. Sometimes patience is truly a virtue in today's society of our fast-paced living. Time seems to equate to money but never living our life. We trade our time for money but not for God. I believe each of us was bought at a price with certain gifts to give to the world.  It's those gifts that we should use to help others. By mentoring and volunteering our time we can become angels and messengers of God on this earth to spread the gospel of Jesus.  It is through slowing down and realizing life's too short to run your race at someone else's speed. 

Slow down, enjoy the ride and help someone each day reach their goals and you will see how God opens doors that you thought were impossible.

Tip for couples:
Find opportunities in coming together as one in sharing your talents. Volunteer at a food bank or homeless shelter. Talk about the experience of helping others on your journey of being a messenger for Christ.
