This Fast Pace

18 October 2008

If you have not seen the movie Eagle Eye, this thought may not make sense… but I write just to think out aloud anyway.

The movie is so fast paced. You sit on the edge of your seat the whole time wondering what is going to happen next. Where is the next place I need to go? What is the next sign I need to look out for?

The main actor wasn’t expecting to fall into this adventure. But, he had to act immediately and make sense of his role in the adventure along his way.

Just like the 4 children in the story of the Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe and also Prince Caspian (CS Lewis’ Chronicles of Narnia)… they fell into an adventure they weren’t expecting. Through a wardrobe and through a vortex of some sort in the Underground (Narnian magic); they find themselves living an adventure that changed their lives for the better.

I guess I like adventure and often see myself in this huge adventure movie with significant scenes and moments and a crucial cast to my life in that specific moment or place.

I feel in my heart a scream for this Eagle Eye to continue doing what He is doing. And this Eagle Eye is good. His plan can be trusted. He won’t let me down. I feel secure in placing my trust in Him.

I don’t have all the answers. I don’t know who I am completely. But as I lived this fast paced adventure I will learn more than I ever thought I would. And in the serene moments I will have along the way, I will cherish them and rest and thank those who have played crucial roles in my life’s adventure.

I want to live well.
