Walking in Grace

Yesterday at church one of our elders was talking about how Christians often ask "What is God's will for my life?" when the question should be "How do I walk in his grace everyday?" I have to admit I am one of those that tends to always ask what is God's will. I seem to always be living for the future instead of living for today. I began to realize all of the opportunities I miss to share Christ with others and just be a light to this dark world simply because I keep asking God what's next. I want to know where he is leading me and yet I don't see the place I am standing right now. That is the reason I become so impatient with God most of the time. He is wanting me to look at what he is doing around me immediately and yet I am completely focused on the part I can't see. There are times when we need to seek God on decisions and make sure that we are following where he is leading. However, more often than not if we are walking in his grace living day by day, moment by moment with him we are not going to miss the path. My desire is just to love him more, to know him more, and to appreciate what he is doing here and now. It blows me away to know that he is in this moment with me. He said his name is "I am" meaning here and now, I don't have to look to the future to find him or dwell in the past. I just need to be fully in the moment, with every breath recognizing his awesome power and guidance.
