Aware

Are you Aware? Do you know what's going on? Or do you just wander aimlessly focused on yourself and your own desires?

The lyrics to the song "Aware" by Salvador put it so simply.

"Oh it is you in me that I fail to see
Make me aware, make me see
That everything I am is not all about me
So Take my world and turn it around
So that the obvious can finally be found
Make me aware, make me aware "

The bridge to the song puts it even better -

"I have been missing so much
Not recognizing your touch
Acknowledging that you’re the reason
I am even here
I have been missing so much not recognizing your touch
Make me aware, make me aware "

What are you missing? What am I missing? This life is not about our sinful desires. No, it is about working for our creator. We need to take some time to acknowledge that the creator of the universe has sent his Holy Spirit to come and be with us every day.

Awareness comes from spending time with God and focusing on Him throughout the day. When the Holy Spirit tugs on your heart to talk to that person or help out that individual, will you listen? Or will you walk away and just focus on yourself?

Will you become aware?
