what's your starfish?
today in our small group/lunch break my co-workers and I watched the nooma video shells. It basically talked about being too preoccupied with the business of life to focus on the one true thing that really matters. The question on everyone’s mind though was…what is the one true thing? In the story, the one important thing you should be chasing was symbolized by a starfish.
So in your life, is the starfish a better job, better health, a spouse, etc. or is it a closer relationship with God?
At first I thought my starfish should be my calling…the stuff I think I’ll do when I have the freedom to do it.
But as the day fades away, I’m thinking it’s probably more about a relationship, a state of being…than an actual thing or place.
What am I holding on to that’s distracting me from a relationship with my Heavenly Father? What kinds of things am I carrying around in my heart that’s preventing me from having all that God wants to bless me with? What can’t I let go of that’s limiting my life to only my imagination and not God’s amazing plan and purpose?
