Dear God, Help Me Live in the Moment

by Leila Grandemange

Be happy in the moment, that’s enough. Each moment is all we need, not more. – Mother Teresa

Dogs are some of my favorite teachers, imparting wisdom in ways I never thought possible! One of the most cherished lessons I’ve learned from my dogs is to live in the moment. Dogs are masters of mindfulness. In other words, they are aware of their surroundings and what they are doing moment by moment. I believe this is what gives them their carefree spirit. If only we could follow their example more often, we’d be less likely to look forward with uncertainty, or back with regret and pain.
Mindfulness has many benefits. Here are a few . . .
  • Mindfulness decreases stress
  • Enhances our ability to deal with illness
  • Help with recovery
  • Eases symptoms of depression
  • Improves general health

Dear God, help me to live in the moment, rather than looking back with regret, or forward with uncertainty. Amen
Be encouraged!
