Watching the Symphony That Is Life


Soooo, something finally occurred to me tonight. I'm sitting here, pondering life- my life- and how certain people came to be a part of it. Okay, really I'm just in awe of how one certain person became a part of it. And it hit me that we spend our days meeting people. We see faces, we hear names, and we encounter so many of God's spirits every day. But it isn't until we connect with them, that we realize that they are actually more than just a face. They have a name, a story, and a connection with us. It isn't until God shows us why certain people cross our paths that we then look back and see the grand orchestration of the first meeting, the first smile, the first date, maybe even the first kiss.

We don't notice the symphony God is creating all around us, until we begin to hear the music reach a Crescendo. We don't see ourselves as the section leader and Him as the conductor until one day we realize the importance of a special someone in your grand musical number. Life is one beautiful piece of music... 

This has me wondering: who else has crossed my path that I've overlooked that will one day play a pivotal role in me finding my unique song and finding out who I am.

Things happen in our life that we can't always explain. People appear, they disappear, we love or we get our hearts broken... that just makes it all the more real that when it's God's time, things will happen. We cannot deter them or slow their course. Great things will come, and bad things will come and they will all come when they are supposed to. Right now, I'm part of a great thing that is life. A weird, fast, great thing. 

Now, if you had asked me on May 23 where I would be today, I couldn't have possibly guessed this.
But that's the beauty of life: we never know what God has in store for us. But if we trust Him, life can be a wonderful adventure.
