Your temptation likely
takes you to another place and time than where you are
now.
What does this tell
you?
It probably indicates
dissatisfaction or boredom with your present
circumstances.
If this is so, have you written
off your current situation too quickly?
Have you decided it simply can't
be better than some fantasized place and
time?
The passage above suggests
otherwise. Namely, that the yet-to-happen scenario, if
actually lived out, will present its own share of
trouble.
Might as well remain in the here
and now.
But don't take up your present
circumstances with a sigh of resignation.
The present has far richer
opportunities than whatever you can imagine for the
future.
That's because the present
reality is where God chooses to meet you — not
some future fantasy.
He's here for you — now.
Engage him. Speak with him. Acknowledge your fears,
desperation and boredom. Ask him to reveal an
effective option.
For now. Not the
future.
Next: Hope
Always.
