Great Thoughts, Small Moments

Last Thursday I went to a live concert in which some people talked of their lives in and out of the Church. One of them, who had always been a “church-goer,” one day, realized that he had to start taking Christ seriously. This simple thought changed his life. It also reminded me that one day, as I was opening the door I told myself that I did not want to get far from God ever again. I remember that I was turning the key as I had this thought. What I only discovered months later is that that moment was the first mark of the greatest “before and after” of my life.

A great moment often comes in normal situations, thoughts… but it is up to us to take them seriously; to make, out of a hidden thought, a life-changing moment.

I leave you with a simple word that Jesus said once to Matthew. One verse in the Bible, the life-changing moment in Matthew’s life: "As Jesus was walking on from there he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax office, and he said to him, 'Follow me.' And he got up and followed him." (Matthew 9:9)
