Be Present

Posted at Catalyst: 19 Sep 2011 01:38 PM PDT

Stop. Pay Attention. Focus. Where Are You?
Where is your heart? Where is your soul?
In a million different places. Mind on a million different things.
Distressed. What needs to be done? Will you finish that project?
Who won the game? Fretting over a to do list that is unfinished.
Talking on the phone. Checking twitter. Updating your status.
Wondering what “they” are doing. What’s going on “out there.”
Will I ever get ahead? The past. The future. Distracted. Out of Control.
Be still and know that I am God.
Take a deep breath. Rest in Him. Be rooted. Immersed.
Get comfortable with silence. Listen. Find your true voice.
Who and what is right in front of you? See things you didn’t see.
Feel things you didn’t feel. Now engage in this moment.
Be. Here. Now.
Be Present.

Shine On!
Dave
