God is in every aspect of life

Okay, I know the title of this seems silly because it really is true.  But sometimes we need that reminder, don't we?  These last few weeks, I've developed old patterns which are not just hurting me physically but mentally and spiritually!  I have the great fortune of having wonderful friends that I've surrounded myself with because God brought them into my life.  Each of them brings something different into my life that is indescribable.  I know for a FACT that those people were meant to be there because God knew I couldn't do what I do without their help.  Obviously, He is the only source to my healthy well-being, physically, spiritually, and mentally.  He does, however, provide those various opportunities and people in your life to show who you can be through Him!  I LOVE THAT! I've been reading and listening to lots of different books and audio lately and let me tell you... first off, it's all common sense I feel but all of it hit me like a ton of bricks because I was actually listening to them this time!  God shows us who He is EVERYDAY! Not just with those around us but look around you at what He's created for us to enjoy!  Hear what people tell you and sometimes yeah, take it with a grain of salt, but listen with an open heart as well in case you may miss something.  Listen to those words sung or spoken around you.  Through the laughter of a child.  Through the calmness of the breeze.  Through the mundane of everyday life... the fact that we have an everyday life... at least for now.  Through the whispers of quiet.  Through the roar of a storm.  Through the fragrance of flowers or the freshly fallen rain.  Where is God around you?  You may not feel Him there, but He is ALL the time!  Where is He?  Are you seeing, feeling, or touching Him?  Are you allowing Him to touch you?  What's holding you back?  What causes you to hesitate?  Embrace all that is around you and ENJOY what He's created for you.  Find the positive through the storm.  Walk around with your head held high because you have a God that LOVES YOU! Show people who gave you that smile!  Show people who gave the passion and desires of your heart!  Show people who created YOU! Do not be afraid to share that with those around you!  For in the end, He's all we have and most importantly all we'll ever NEED!  :)
