Making the most

Make the most out of every opportunity in these evil days. (Ephesians 5:15)

My wife, (Rachel) is the perfect example of this. If you know her really well, or have ever had any interaction with her before she most likely made you feel loved and cared for because she made the most out of that opportunity. 

Every time we host someone together, whether it's in our apartment or a family get together back home in Ligonier, she goes all out. She makes sure everything is picture perfect. She puts some pizzazz in ALL that she does! 

A couple weeks ago we hosted my family in our apartment for the afternoon, and you should've seen the fruit plate and veggie tray she put together. It was unbelievable. I think we had every fruit from the grocery store, and the best looking veggies. If you would've taken a couple pictures it could've ended up in a magazine!  It was something I never even would've thought about! I think I was just planning on getting some chips and cheese and crackers. 

Making the most of every opportunity is not my strongest attribute, so I am thankful that Rach does this better than anyone that I know. 

I could go on and on about Rach but just wanted to make today's post brief. Make the most of every opportunity you have today. Make the most of every interaction you have with your family, co-workers, and even random people you might see out and about. If you're trying to get a little extra work done before the beautiful weekend, do it! If you want to call or text and old friend you haven't spoken with in a couple months, do it! 

I know for me whenever I make the most of every opportunity I feel so much better about myself and know that I am living in such a way that God would be pleased with. 

I honestly believe that when we are on earth making the most of every opportunity, God is in heaven smiling.

I believe that one of the things that hold people back from having a relationship with Christ is the feeling that they for some reason think...
