Don't you love it when after you listen to a song about five times, you suddenly get illuminated with the thought,
Hey, I really love this song! Turns out, frontman Jon Foreman and company of alternative rock band Switchfoot captivated me with that thought. Switchfoot has been around since the 90's and there is no sign of them slowing down. In 2011, Switchfoot released an album called
Vice Versus, and the first track is called "Afterlife."
'Cause everyday the world is made
A chance to change but I feel the same
And I wonder why I would wait til I die to come alive
I'm ready now, I'm not waiting for the afterlife
-from "Afterlife," Switchfoot, 2011
I was driving in my car the other morning blasting this song and reflecting. (Yes, driving, blasting and reflecting
is possible to do together!) No matter what circumstance life throws at me, striving toward effectively handling the situation is crucial. I can't stand allowing conflict to stand in the way of making the most of every opportunity. Why wait? And why would I allow myself to stand still, even though sometimes I don't want to change my attitude? I read a verse recently God is the focalpoint in
all things. He is the master of every decision, the designer of all art, and the conscience of all things good.
God is not the author of confusion but of peace.
-1 Corinthians 14:33
