I was running my errands today and something happened to me that got me thinking. Daily I make a trip downtown for work to the local post office and bank. Today there was no need to go to the bank, but I found myself making the subconscious decision to go there anyways. I made the same right turn I would have made any other day, followed by another right turn, and had just put my blinker on for the left turn when I realized what I was doing. I guess you could say I am a creature of habit.
Have you been there? Too often I find myself living my life short of the focus I long for; passing up opportunities, living unintentionally, falling into ruts, and zoning out. I want to be more mindful of heavenly things and my heavenly calling (Col. 3).
