Have you ever felt like life is on repeat? \u00a0Day in and day out, doing the same things over and over, much like the movie “Groundhog Day”. \u00a0Phil (portrayed by Bill Murray) wakes up to the same song on the radio, at the same time each day. \u00a0The first several days he was sick of it; knowing what was going to happen down to the second, and either watching or intervening for his benefit, not caring about long term consequences. \u00a0Finally, he was at the point of wanting to break the cycle so bad, he was attempting suicide. \u00a0One night, he finally opens up to his co-worker and wants to better himself. \u00a0He now sees the town in a different light, and uses his time to help people and learn new things (playing piano and speaking French). \u00a0Once Phil learns his lesson and sees life in a new light, the cycle is broken and time now moves forward.<\/p>\n
I’ve been learning to see God in the small things, because I felt like I was on the same cycle each and every day. \u00a0I began to lose purpose and wonder what God’s plan was, and during prayer time, felt tired and exhausted, not refreshed. \u00a0It was a few weeks ago that I was listening to a song driving to Church on a beautiful Sunday morning. \u00a0The song is titled “Good Good Father”, by Zealand Worship (highly recommended), and its about crying out to God that we trust His plan, and He is a good good Father. \u00a0I walked into church, and the second song on the playlist that morning was “Good Good Father”. \u00a0It was at that moment I felt broken down, and knew that was God telling me to trust His plan, and not be caught up in the ‘normal-ness’ of life. \u00a0I left Church that morning feeling refreshed and revitalized, knowing with Christ in my heart I can conquer anything. \u00a0God does not want us to lead a boring, mundane life; He wants us to let Him take control and let Him be the King of our lives.<\/p>\n
When God speaks, its not always a booming voice with thunder and lightening coming from Heaven, it can be the smallest sign or the quietest voice in our heart. \u00a0I decided to go on a nature photo shoot with my new vision and mindset, and see what I could find. \u00a0On my way there, I got off the thruway and was stopped at the end of the exit ramp. \u00a0My prayer the whole day was “Let me see you where I least expect it”, and as I looked to my left, there was a “One Way” sign with an arrow pointed directly at the afternoon sun. \u00a0My mind and heart saw that as incredible, knowing the one way to Heaven is Gods Son, Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n
My afternoon continued and came to a close, and each time I think about anything, I see God in it. \u00a0When I care for people at work, I can see Gods hand; when out for a walk, I see Gods hand; when talking with people, I see Gods hand on their lives; when talking and thinking about Brothers Without Borders, I see Gods hand on us. \u00a0I am now beginning to see it everywhere, and I pray this for you too! \u00a0For my Emergency Medicine friends, think of our heart. \u00a0God didn’t just give us a heart that if one thing fails we drop dead; our hearts electrical system has a backup. \u00a0If the SA node doesn’t fire, the AV node can take over!<\/p>\n
My friends, don’t waste anymore time in the boring-ness of life, open up to Christ and the life He wants you to live. \u00a0The road may be difficult at times, but we’re in this together, and the journey is incredibly exciting when you jump in and don’t look back. \u00a0Let go, and let God.<\/p>\n
