Yesterday my wife and I went out on a date night. We have been blessed in the last few
months to be working in the same location with approximately the same
hours. For this reason, we usually
take my car and haven’t even pulled hers out of the garage for the last few
months. Which happens to coincide
with about the same amount of time that we have really been digging into this
whole “Christianity” thing.
I
don’t think that either one of us has had that Ah-hah, Saved, moment. You know the one that you hear about so
often in the church? When someone
was down as low as they could get and they finally threw there hands up and
said, “This world has gotten the best of me. I can’t do it without you anymore
God.” And because we haven’t had
that moment, sometimes it is hard to know that we are walking with the Lord. Sometimes it just feels like we are walking.
But
yesterday when we got going in the car and turned on the radio for a little
background noise, I flipped through the presets and didn’t come across a single
Christian station, which is pretty much all we listen to anymore. This simple little observation sent me
back to six months ago when neither one of us was quite sure if church was
something that we even wanted to do.
And today, I can’t imagine going through a whole day without thinking of
the Lord and thanking him for…well, everything.
Maybe it doesn’t have to be an
Ah-hah saved moment. Maybe it can
just be a little movement everyday until suddenly we are fully in the Light of
our Lord and Savior.
