Last week, during my March Madness Series, I spoke about the need to take time outs. Take a moment and watch this video.



This is a clip of an experiment The Washington Post did with Joshua Bell, the world’s best violin player. They put him in a Washington DC Metro stop to work his musical magic. Would people stop and listen to the world’s best violin player who’s playing one of the world’s best violins (his violin was made in 1730 and cost $3.5 million)?

1,097 people walking past him and only a handful stop to listen. They are completely ignoring a once in a lifetime opportunity to hear this guy.

We miss opportunities in life and in our walk with God when we refuse to stop and listen! Take a timeout this week. Get alone with God then get back in the game!
