Enjoy The Moment

This Sunday we begin our new series of messages called, "Carpe Diem". 

Life is flying by and too often we fail to live "in the moment". I have a tendency to always want what is next and never savoring what is present.


The second night after Shelby was born I can remember being in the hospital and holding her at 2 A.M; she was crying and fussy and I was tired and I started to think “God please help her to grow up quick so that we don’t have to do this anymore.” And immediately I felt convicted, I couldn’t believe that I just prayed that; looking down at Shelby I made a promise that I would never pray or wish for the next stage of her life to hurry up and get here, but that I would enjoy her at that moment - - every moment.
