In Perfect Sync

“Your Life And Everything In It - In Perfect Sync.”

I’m ready! Sign me up. Now!

Needless to say I was a little disappointed when I realized the ad was for a program on my computer that will keep all my calendar events, contacts, etc., together in a way that allows me to access it on any computer, anywhere, anytime. As much as I enjoy my computer and all the things it allows me to do at a mind-boggling speed, I would be more pleased to have my life and everything in it in perfect sync.

What would life be like if everything was in perfect sync?

There would be no stress, because the things that produce stress would not exist.

There would be no worries, because the things that cause us to be worried would have been taken care of.

There would be no sadness, because everything would be in perfect order and thus no reason for sadness.

There would be no regrets because everything would have gotten done in good order and at just the right time.

There would be no reason to be depressed or discouraged because the events and people that produce depression and cause discouragement would have been done away with, or compensated for by the new found ability to put things in order.

There would be no rushing. There would be no catching up. There would be no searching for things that have been misplaced. There would be no repairing what has been messed up by inefficiency. There would be no waste. There would be no missed appointments. There would be no rushing to make appointments. There would be no arguments with your spouse or your children or your parents or coworkers. Everything would be in perfect sync.

After this brief bit of daydreaming, there is good news and bad news.

The bad news: there is no computer software program that will put my life in perfect sync (not even a Mac).

The good news: One day everything will be in perfect. ~From my friend, Tom Norvell

I might add that with the day of perfection a very real assurance, we would also find that managing life in this world a little easier if we set our priorities in order. The time-tested acronym J.O.Y. will help us prioritize.
J. = JESUS,
O. = OTHERS &
Y. = yourself.

Allow your day to be in sync by taking a moment to reflect on what Jesus has done for you. Then, think about what all the “Others” mean to your life. Finally, close the day by thinking about YOU; how blessed you are to have those first two in your life.

Hi Mike & Sharon,

Thanks once again for yet another Inspiring Story.  I also often wish I could manage to complete all of my tasks without the many interuptions and obstacles in my way, before I can finish.

However, I am reminded of the story of the well- intentioned young man, who after watching a Butterfly struggle for hours to free its body through the small opening in the cocoon, was worried that it would never free itself.  Wishing to help the Butterfly, the young man took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bits of the cocoon, so that the Butterfly emerged quite easily. 

Unfortunately, without the struggle, the needed blood was not forced from its body down into its wings and therefore the wings never fully filled out.  In fact, the Butterfly spent the rest of its Life crawling around with a bloated body and shriveled wings, and was never able to fly.

Sometimes struggles are what we need in our life.  If God allowed us to go through life without any obstacles, we would never be as strong as what we could have been, and we never could Fly.

Here's something I hope you enjoy: http://www.llerrah.com/dreams.htm

Have A Blessed Easter,
