I think about the videos I saw of a recent party… people lined up waiting their turn to jump onto the wet and soapy plastic runner, only to arrive at the bottom end with a splash and laugh their way into the next stage of the competition.
And I think of how God uses the exact same delivery method to slide a point of connection into my day. Perhaps He, too, is waiting for His turn and time to compete for my attention.
Can’t picture it? I think of the many times I have been busy with my own plans and activities, oblivious in those moments to any thoughts of God. But suddenly He’s next up and slides into my consciousness through a word, a memory, or the lyrics to a song that suddenly takes me back to a moment with Him. Oh, the joy of the recollection, and the realization that He is very much with me right now, my Partner in the game of life. How can I possibly win without Him? We join hands, hearts and forces as we battle together from that point forward.
God wants to enter our fun and will always find a way to slide into our day. He brings the party!
“This is the day which the Lord hath made; We will rejoice and be glad in it.”
