Right now!

We live in a Right Now society. We want change, when do we want it? Right Now. We want things, when do we want them? Right Now. We want gratification, when do we want it? Right Now. What if we are letting our right now get in the way of our “Right”.

I am probably the worlds worst to talk about this but I feel like I have to. Maybe it’s not for anyone but me, but it needs to be said. If I decide I want something I want it now. I don’t often care about the cost or repercussions. I get up and I go get it. If I can’t have it right now then I pout, whine, and complain until I do get it. In most of these situations I got what I wanted, even if it didn’t end up being what I wanted. I tend to rush into things without knowing the full cost or the full effect.

When we rush into things we forget the most important piece. It has taken me a long time to realize I’m not on my timeline I’m on his. Just because I want something right now doesn’t mean it is my time. I have had doors slammed in my face that looked like the best opportunity I would ever have only to watch it crumble from the outside and realize that I was watching it from the outside because God was looking out for me.

I’m not saying don’t go after what you want. I am saying go into the situation with as much knowledge as you can gather, with as many answers as you can find, and with all of the God you can fit into your soul. Because running into a situation and leaving God on the sidelines never works the way you think it should.

Get out there today and allow God to order your steps and let him lead you down the right path. To begin your journey you have to Move! I love you.
