Chasing Daylight 3




CHAPTER 1- CHOICES Continued...

Defining Moments...

It’s Friday, Yay!
Lets keep digging into choices and moments.  

EXCERPT“As I reflect on my life, it seems that a handful of moments shaped the texture of my entire life. I am convinced that most of us could summarize our lives around five or six defining moments-moments that is we had chosen differently would have radically altered our lives.”
McManus

I would have to say a defining moment in my life was the weekend I met Natalie in England. I realized instantly that Natalie was the most incredible woman I have ever met!
In that MOMENT, God presented me with two CHOICES, to rise up, push into Him and to believe I could one day be a man, worthy to have a woman like her OR the choice to continue on the path of least resistance, least effort that I was so accustomed to and remain like a reed shaken in the wind.
I did not know in that MOMENT that it would become a DEFINING MOMENT. Literally from that day on, something switched over and my heart was set on a new course. Everything changed because of choosing to step up to be the man of God someone like Natalie would need. I even remember coming before the Lord that day and saying, Lord even if I never see Natalie again, thank you for using this time to reveal how much more you have in store for me.

SCRIPTURE: Read Joshua 6. Story about Rahab the prostitute who chose to help the spies Joshua had sent out. That choice in that moment became a divine moment, saving her life and changes her destiny!

PRAYER: Lord... help us once again to understand that every moment offers us choices, choices that can unlock the dreams and plans you have for our lives. May we chase daylight embracing every second of this temporary life. AMEN
