“So many moments are lost when we're looking only for what we can get.”

A thought by Erwin Raphael McManus from his book, Chasing Daylight: Seize the Power of Every Moment (Kindle Locations 590-591). Kindle Edition.

The key to living life to the max is not to look at what you can get out of it but what you can give to it.  

Margaret and I are moving to Florida in five weeks.  When we got the reason why we are moving which is to be near my mother and to feed into her life the place where we are going to live fell into place.  Life is to be lived as a ministry.  That is why we are here.  That is where meaning and purpose and happiness come from. 

I know so many people who haven’t figured that out. 

What about you?
