Keep it Cool Positive and Keep Looking to the Now

Well hey there again. I dont really know how to start this. I have so many emotions and feelings as well as thoughts that are going through my mind right now. It is quite a thrill ride in my mind right now. Anyway, I am going to try and organize me thoughts.

It really is weird how when you totally strip yourself down to your core that you start realizing what needs to happen in life so that you will not be doing anything but glorifying God. I myself was sitting and praying earlier today. I started praying about all of my crap that I have been feeling and after I let it all go i just felt completely different. I felt as if an ape jumped off of my back and I could stand up straighter then before. I can live my true life and live out my faith. I am finally over caring about what people think because everyone thinks different things about everyone else, but if you let yourself care so much about what others think about you then who are you living for? Definitely not for yourself, or God himself.

Sorry that was a side tangent, but a good one. Back to what I wanted to talk about originally that being the two things that have kind of just came to me lately. Like I said, I was out praying earlier today, and I got told something. The voice was small and very hushed, but it said, "Be Positive, and live for the now." I know it is really cliche to say "He was spoken to by God!" But, I can say that something led me to thinking of those sayings. First of all, in life if you aren't positive about every situation and dont shine the light on the low points and on the high points, then is life going to be that enjoyable? It will probably be really hard to live to your fullest when you look at each situation you are put in and think that the worst is going to happen or regretting what you did or said. That leads me to the second part. Live in the Now. Sometimes I catch myself looking back into the past and regretting things that I have done or said, but when I catch myself doing that I look and smile up at the sky because I realize that we can't bring back the past. Why bring yesterdays crap into today? This day is a new day, a fresh start, and a new opportunity to redeem yourself. Look to the now, dont live for the future, or even the past. They both mean nothing to you unless you let life surprise you and let the Lord take the lead. Amen.
