"Are you hooked up?"

A guy had just started his own firm. He’d rented a beautiful office and furnished it with antiques. Sitting at his huge oak desk, he saw a man come into the outer office. So the businessman picked up the phone and pretended he was working on a big deal.

“I’m sorry,” he said, “that’s just too small an account for a firm like ours. We only deal with accounts worth $1 million and higher. Now if you want to bundle some accounts together in your company and let us handle all of your business, we can do that.”

He waved the man in from the outer office and motioned him to a chair.

“Sure, we can take care of $250 million for you. No problem! Okay, let’s talk again soon,” he said. He hung up the phone and turned to the man in the chair. “And what can I do for you today, sir?”

And the man said, “I’m here to hook up your phone.”

Are you hooked up? I mean, with someone other than yourself?

Hook up with God today as you listen to life and make a life, not just a living.

I recently left my cell phone at the office one afternoon and had to leave for a lunch appointment. It was then during lunch, that I realized that I didn't have my phone. And for an hour, one full hour, I felt lost.

My friend saw the panic in my face and asked if everything was alright, which was when I explained what I had done. She looked at me and stated that she often compared that feeling, to those that don't know God.

And just then, I realized that that was my wake up call! So now, I leave my phone at the office everyday, so that I can better listen to life.
