I choose to intentionally see the fruit around me and harvest it for higher good. In this fast paced, internet based, on demand,,, cell phone consumed life it is so easy to miss the what God has provided right in front of us. We are trained early on never to be content.... which is the opposite of what God created for each of us. Contentment is a state of being, just like joy, happiness and peace..... it starts within. Contentment starts with gratitude..... being grateful for the fruits in our current life.
When we rush around we miss the little things that add up to the big things in life. Later down the road we look back and wonder where the time went..... how we missed so much. The fruit of our harvest is the smiles on the one's we love..... it is serving others and watching them soar..... it is knowing that we are intentionally connected and energetically engaging in life.
How about you? Are you running from place to place..... missing what's in between? Are you staring at your phone instead of staring into the eyes of those around you. Can I encourage you today to put your phone down and really look at the people in your life? Possibly stop the running and the busyness and start purposely engaging? The fruit of your harvest is all around you waiting on you to pick it out of the rushing life around you!
