My Personal Journey in God’s Present Moment
My Personal Journey in God’s Present Moment
My life with God has become an exciting adventure.
I don’t live in past regrets or worry about the future. Instead, I live in the present moment, seeking His knowledge and wisdom for every step I take. Each day unfolds as a wonderful journey of discovery.
“This is the day the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it.” – Psalm 118:24 (NLT)
I’ve learned that following God’s will requires me to know Him intimately. My early morning routine of prayer and Bible study is absolutely essential. Without this one-on-one relationship with my Creator, I can’t fully experience His presence in the little moments throughout my day.
“Search for the Lord and for his strength; continually seek him.” – 1 Chronicles 16:11 (NLT)
Through this daily practice, I’ve discovered that God’s guidance transforms my ordinary routines into extraordinary experiences. When I start each morning in conversation with Him, my confusion turns to clarity, my anxiety melts into peace, and my mundane daily tasks become meaningful adventures.
“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.” – Philippians 4:6 (NLT)
I’ve seen miraculous changes not just in my own life, but in the lives of those around me. It’s not about me trying to control circumstances anymore – it’s about surrendering to His moment-by-moment guidance. This way of living has completely changed how I experience each day.
I’ve found that life with God truly is an exciting adventure. By staying present, seeking His wisdom, and maintaining my intimate relationship with Him, I experience the joy and peace that comes from walking in His daily guidance. This isn’t just something I believe – it’s how I live, and it has transformed everything about my life.

Habakkuk 2:2
The Christian life is not a constant high. I have my moments of deep discouragement. I have to go to God in prayer with tears in my eyes, and say, ‘O God, forgive me,’ or ‘Help me.’
Hi there Jim! Hope this message finds you in great spirits. I’m considering diving into modern technology and blogging about my faith as well...using storytelling to uplift and inspire. I’d love to connect and see where our paths might cross!
