"ENJOY THE MOMENT"
CHUCK D. PIERCE WITH PENNY JACKSON, CORINTH, TX
Penny Jackson, from Houston, was talking with Pam and I this week about "the new" ahead for all of us. She lives in a beautifully situated home in Houston, Texas. Her home has been used to gather leaders and intercessors from around the Houston area. God is there! However, like most of us, she knows great changes are coming. What she shares below is a wonderful encouragement to "enjoy the moment" God has for us each day.
Recently, someone mentioned to me that she felt like I would be moving to another city within the next two years. I have heard similar things before about moving someday, and this may well be the case. Time will tell, and I will stay open to His voice.
Almost twenty years ago, the Lord brought me to the house where I now live. I had longed for a house for years. In this setting has been the most precious season of my life. I have felt so blessed here, and I have loved sharing my home with others. But this morning, I realized something had changed. I had allowed things to become lifeless; nothing felt new. I'd had some thoughts periodically of sprucing things up, bringing in some new life, but when those thoughts came, somewhere down deep inside me was this: "Why bother? I'll be moving." Every decision I made seemed to be through this filter.
My friend likened it to knowing you'd be leaving a job soon. You don't put in the same level of effort, having already moved on mentally and emotionally. This is where I found myself today: I had moved on from this home before the Lord had moved me out.
We are beginning to see and hear exciting things that will be our "new" in the days, weeks, months, or even years to come. However, right now we are where the Lord has placed us. And "right now" is where He dwells. So, I have made the declaration that I will fully live in this house each day. If and when that changes, I will live fully in the next place. But now, I am here...with Him.
I hear a caution in this for us all. Don't get ahead of Him. Don't miss the blessing of the present moment by focusing on what's next. Take joy in where you are right now because that's where He is.
