What if the best moments are the ones we’d never choose?

I frequently find myself in moments I would not choose if given the choice. That awkward conversation that must take place. That tantrum throwing point of no return. That seat assigned among strangers that all know each other. That piece of information shared I wish I didn’t know and sit wondering what to do with it now.

Moment after moment after moment we find ourselves in an array of situations. Some days I want to throw my hands in the air and say, “Lord, today can I just have everything fall into perfect place?”

Essentially, I’m asking for life to be just the way I think is best. But I’m learning each day that the very best might be the last thing I would choose.

Join me over at Lift Up Your Day where I’m writing about what it would look like if we could handpick our moments.
