Jibber Jabber. Confusion :/ Wait.... I get it

I was confused today. I had an awesome day, I got a haircut, spent a while at the gym working out and playing basketball, and working a little bit because a few people called in sick. Those are completely irrelevant though. My God moment came after work when I was driving home. Again at the Harding Exit. The homeless guy was standing in the rain with his headphones in. I reached for some change and had it in my hand rolled down the window and waved him down. He was walking down the line of cars looking for someone to give him some money and there I was waving him down. He looked at me and kept walking. I was sitting there, the rain coming into my window, waiting for him but he walked around aimlessly with his headphones and sign. I was flustered, I thought to myself,"Really bro, really?" Rolled up my window and followed the car ahead of me through the green light. Why would he not take my money? Did he not see me? Is my money not good enough? BAM! BAM! God moment.
How many times do we ignore God looking for something better? 
"Why are you looking for love
Why are you still searching
As if I'm not enough
To where will you go child
Tell where will you run
to where will you run?"
-Tenth Avenue North 
(By Your Side)
Seriously Ryan, seriously? This really sums up the "now" of my life. What the flip am I searching for? Love? God is love. Music? God is Music. What part of life can be complete without God. Perhaps the few moments we spend on the "throne" don't need God, but who wants to spend their life on the "throne"?  Be realistic. God is what matters. We are beggars, looking for something better or an illusion of something better, some people choose to settle with illusions. I won't, I want the real thing. I don't want to walk away from God waiting in his car, in the rain, window down, calling out to me. Ryan, I have what you need, Why are you looking as if I'm not enough? God has a plan for me. I think I'm going to take it, actually that's an understatement, I will take it. I used to be afraid to admit it and here I am admitting it to the world the best way I know how. Thanks God for the confidence :)

Don't look for something more. Run to God. Would you rather be city league champions on your own or World Champions with God? I know what I'd choose. God bless you guys and life is choices even CHOOSING not to make a choice is ultimately a choice, so there's no way to play it safe. Choose the right one ya'll. Peace out.
