“Flappy Bird” – Part II. God has given us life to live. He wants us to enjoy it and not have to flap and grab and climb and stomp on other people to get ahead. And He wants us to know why we are living our lives (hopefully for Him and His Kingdom). Sometimes we receive His word and turn around and do the same things over and over again. Although we often have to repeat lessons, just like the Israelites wandering for 40 years in the desert, moving ahead in life generally implies a move forward and not being stationary or only “accomplishing” a lateral move. When we are trying things on for size (life experiences, etc.) and get excited about new opportunities, we should look to God and rejoice in His love for us…and not wait until we have the things we want. They will not satisfy us as much as His love will. Thank you, God, for providing Yourself first, and then the things and the meaningful, fun things to do. Amen.
