Reflective Thoughts for the Day


"To be conscious about something is to be aware of it"

This was part of my reflection thoughts this morning. Got me thinking about my surroundings. Immediately I thought about my family who is always around me. Then i thought about students, church staff, friends, barista at Starbucks and the list can go on, and i almost let it. I realized (for me) that when people are 'around' me i am not always aware of them.

We are surrounded by people all the time. We are connected to people every where we go but how often are we aware of their life? Even as a father & husband i can be disconnected from my family when i am not completely connected with them.

So my challenge today and till Sunday (short term goal with wanting long term affect here) is to be conscious and aware of who and what is happening around me to do what i can to make a difference. This also means to be aware of what God may want to speak to me on, direct me to do & every other aspect in between.

It means i have to be more conscious of God's voice than my own.

Just wanted to share
