Fleeting

It's hard for me to believe that my college years are quickly drawing to a close. I am now 3 weeks into my internship, the final step before graduation and entering the "real world" in December. Looking back over the past 3 and a half years its amazing how quickly they have flown by, freshman year seems more than just two years ago...and the person I was then a distant memory. I am realizing how quickly each day, each hour, each minute, each second of our lives passes us by. It's moments like these that I savor every minute of each day and soak up each day for its fullness, not wanting to miss the beauty and wonder in each day. It's also moments like these that I realize how often I am so consumed with the trivial things in life that a day passes me by without me having enjoyed one minute of the beauty it held. Its alot times like this that I realize how I often I float through the days acknowledging the Lord but yet not being sensitive to His leading and missing those divine appointments. My greatest desire in these past few days and weeks is to know the Lord more intimately and to be so in tune with His spirit every moment of my day, that each day is filled to overflowing with testimonies and divine appointments. As I am realizing how quickly life is flying by I am also realizing how imperitive it is to make sure that I am on target with the will and plan of the Lord for my life. Our life is so sweet and yet so fleeting, not a moment can be wasted, we were left here on this earth as the church, the hands and feet of Christ to His works. My prayer is that I would never miss a divine appointment from the Lord(although because I am human I will) and that each day would be lived in the perfect will of my Heavenly Father.
