So, I was sitting on the bus after school listening to my ipod and just stressing really. The song that was playing was called "Let It Burn" by a christian band named Red. And while it was playing i was looking at the sun and the way it was reflecting off the clouds (quite beautiful really), but there were dead tree branches in the way. So my focus would shift from the beautiful thing, to the dead one. Back and forth; back and forth. And then a thought struck me.
          It's usually that way in our relationship with Christ. Well mine anyone, not every single person is like that. But I'm just gonna talk in the "we sense".
          In this metaphor of sorts, Christ is the sun and the beauty surrounding it. At first, it captivates us. Strikes us speechless. But then things get in the way. Life creeps in, sin creeps in. And slowly we start focusing on the thing stationed in front of the sun. This "tree" that seems so tall and threatening. And from where we sit, going out wherever we're going, it blocks out part of the truth. And every single part is important. So our focus is split between two opposite ideals; life and death. Christ and satan.
           So I tried focusing on just the sun and clouds surrounding, even when a tree passed in front of my eyes I tried to still see part of either. And I found it quite difficult.
           It's so easy to get distracted, or doubt because we're afraid, or just sit idle BECAUSE we're afraid. But the longer you focus on the sun, the lighter everything around you seems. It's sounds crazy, but soon you can start seeing beauty IN the PROBLEMS as well. Because you see the light in it, around it. You see the reason for it being there. Where it'll get you. And the blessings it can bring. You start to see God there. So instead of seeing the death, you see the coming of new life. Something that is already alive, can't come back to life.

So that's my God moment for the day.
