chasing:


every scene is a chase scene.
whether it be on stage, on tv, or in our daily lives,
we are chasing something, a goal, a dream, some sort of result.

To chase this "thing", there are steps we need to take. Some steps are the right steps, some steps are the wrong steps. Mistakes are bound to be made, lessons are meant to be learned, and experiences to have. Its a process, its a journey, and it progresses. It gets better.

Looking back again, I watched our SNA again this year, because i got distracted from studying. Anyways, I was watching it and to be truthfully honest, at first, i really was critical and it was even if i dare say discouraging, because it was my work that was on stage that i wasn't satisfied with. But as the fifty minute drama came to life, and went on, i realized and saw it grow before my eyes, as the audience became more invested, as the storylines were built, it grew and blossomed. Like these chase scenes, we were chasing this final product. And for me, what was most rewarding was seeing how invested the audience was, the cheer and claps when the door opened, the laughs when Sheldon kept replacing his glasses, and the gasps when the orb broke, those were the moments i was living off of.

Life is difficult sometimes, but try and don't give up halfway. When i was watching it, i actually thought to myself, "we should just stop the show." But no, this is a commitment, as actors we must stay in character and pull through. Like a marathon you run, you run and complete the race, you shouldn't stop halfway and give up. And SNA was a perfect example to show that if you stick it through, you will find great results. With our walk with Christ. When times get rough, stay faithful, stick it through. The storm will pass and the sun will shine once again. It only gets better. Learn from your experiences and grow from it.

Back to the topic of chasing things, its interesting with Christ because we actually aren't chasing anything. The thing, salvation is already secured for us! We only are the build our relationship with Christ, stay faithful, and fulfill his purpose for us.

with SNA, they chased the Orb of Avaskus,
with the World, we chase fame, success and our dreams,
with Christ, we don't chase, we live to glorify God.

verse of the day: James 1:12
12 Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.
