Something Greater
I didn't really like the prompt for today, but since this is a 30 day writing challenge I figured I should write something, so here goes. Do you ever get the feeling that there should be something more? something greater? A higher calling? Or, on a similar note, that people are involved in something and because of your circumstances you are left behind? Sometimes I find myself with these feelings. Yesterday I posted about opportunities covered by the mundane. It is so easy to be caught up in the quagmire of everyday life that we forget to look around us. Forget about the people who care for us. The mission, job, project, task that God has given us. Our culture screams if you want it bad enough you can have it. While I agree with this to an extent, we can forget what is right in front of us. As the wise old Yoda told us about young Anakin Skywalker (Star Wars reference) "He was too focused on the future, not on the present and not on what he was doing."
