Life's Intersections

What do you do at an intersection? Stop. Look. Proceed. Have you ever given careful thought to the lives you intersect every day? Like me, you probably are focused on where you are going, the time you have to get there as well as everything in-between. How many opportunities are lost for the Glory of God as we pass through those divinely appointed intersections! How would God have us show His love? "By remembering Him at all times - By loving all whose lives intersect our own - By choosing to serve rather than to be served, to be wounded rather than to wound, and by bearing patiently with the failings of others, extending the same kindness, mercy, and compassion that God in Christ has so graciously offered us." (Every Moment Holy). What a call to slow-down, to "be still ... know God" and see Him in every moment of our days. I suggest there will be many intersections in our lives each day ... stop, look, proceed as God leads at every intersection.
