Kung Fu Panda

So wile chillin with family I watched two movies, both of which I found inspiring in some way (I know, I always find movies inspiring :-P) One was a movie I rented for the girls (my little sisters) Kung Fu Panda, which they loved and even Dad chuckled a few times J But the thing that stood out to me was when the wise old master tortoise said “The past is history and the future is a mystery, but right now is a gift, that’s why it’s called the PRESENT” It goes along completely with what God’s been teaching me. I’ve never been able to fully live in the present because I was always placing my identity in the past and worrying about the future, ether dreading it or anticipating it. God is teaching me that nothing I’ve done has thrown off His infinite plan and therefore the past’s only use is to learn from, not to live in, and the future is in His hands regardless of what I do so that’s a waste of good brainpower. The present is what the scripture calls us to. Be instant in season and out of season. Whatsoever thy hands find to do, do it with all your might, as unto the Lord. It’s amazing but when I use 100% of the resources God’s given me for right now and not only 10% there’s far more profit. :-P I don’t suck at life anymore! I just suck at changing that past, but who’d’ a guessed that if we serve God today He’ll provide for tomorrow. (and I always thought tomorrow was my job O:-}
