Yesterday was a good day. It started out pretty bad when I missed church because I didn't wake up to the snooze, but throughout that, I realized that I needed to get away for a while. I had the new member talent show last night, which was fun and everything, but after that I was feeling out of touch with God and with myself. So I came home and started reading Job. This was amazing because I felt very similar to him at that point when he is desperate to stop suffering. He doesn't want to fight another day, but he still relies on God for all of his strength. I realized that I needed to go somewhere and just think, so I went on a run in the rain. It was one of the best things I have ever done. I thought about life and how I have been acting and how I should be acting. I have not been a light like God has called me to do. I have been depressed lately and been pretty mean to those around here, and I need to do a better job representing Him in my life. I have been very busy, but while in the midst of troubles, God shines out even brighter. So if I want to represent Him, this is the perfect time. 

Life moves fast, and we do our best to catch up with it, but I don't think this is the best idea. We will never be able to actually catch it because it doesn't stop and we have to. So why don't we just step back and enjoy what God has created for us. It was so nice just to run in the rain because I didn't have a care in the world, no worries, just me and God. 

If you are struggling with keeping up with life, stop and let God move through you. We can't move that fast, but He can through us.
