LIVING LIFE TO THE FULLEST
How many times have we heard"that"expression? What IS "living life to the fullest"?
How do we do that? Total Focus ! On what EVER your goals are. What EVER they
may be. No need to give examples. Every facet of Human Society has their version
of what your "Goals" are supposed to be. Every Culture and every Nationality has
their own set of values and with that groups agreement, arrive at a commonly
accepted "Goal" for their progeny to STRIVE for. They put this to their young as to
Convey what their "aims" in their lives should be so as accepted in that Society( and
possibly even be admired by members of that Society and thus making the Parents
of said Society VERY PROUD !) There's the motivation! Now, WE take this well meant and well sounding expression to Heart, most of us anyway, so as to look a bit
DOWN on those in our Group that don't ascribe to this "Goal" as set forth by the many. So those that pursue other Goals become SUSPECT to the many and they
begin to FEAR those who don't share their priorities. I think this concept goes a long way in explaining the hostility the TRUE CHURCH is facing today. NOT, I say
NOT ! the "try to get along church" we see beginning to try to sustain itself in the
face of what's happening, as evil starts to rise in our Country and around the World.
Let's not focus on them for now, ( of course they remain in our Prayers that they may someday SEE the TRUTH ) But rather let's look at ourselves ! How MUCH of
our FOCUS in our lives, right now, are focused on HIM ? HE being the APEX of
EVERYTHING IN OUR LIVES ! By this I mean that EVERY waking moment we
FEEL HIM in our "Hearts" We don't go though our day without the CONSTANT
SENSE that HE IS RIGHT THERE WITH US EVERY MINUTE ! Can YOU say that
HE occupies that POSITION in YOUR LIFE ? Short of "Walking the Narrow Way" that
is the BEST you can do in making HIM the most IMPORTANT THING IN YOUR LIFE.
What about those who NEED to take "time-out" from TOTALLY Focusing on the
GOALS set forth by the Society in which that individual finds himself? Then what ?
Well, that Society CONDEMNS him for not going along, FULL TIME , in pursuit of those agreed upon "Ideals". We ALL do it ! Those that don't share our EXACT Beliefs are somehow ."less" than us for their lack of understanding. That's true of us isn't it ?
Here's the BULLET POINT of this note: BE GUILTY OF FOCUSING TOO MUCH ON HIM !
The "heck" with what Society and EVEN OUR FRIENDS THINK (and say) Put HIM AHEAD
OF EVERY THING IN YOUR LIFE and take "time - out" and SEEK HIS VOICE ! !
MARANATHA !
