I often wonder how different this world would be if I could just have a balanced perspective which even saying that makes me giggle at myself. Balance perspective .... What I really want is a God perspective!
I don't know about you but it seems that the world is falling apart~ I listen to the news about the unrest in the Middle East, again and again and again. The earthquake in New Zealand. The budget and oil crises in our country and wonder what the "flip" is going on. My natural self automatically hops on the trail to fear and then I remember ... We have a King who is King over all the earth and beyond. He is completely powerful and in control and my perspective changes. If only my perspective could stay in this place of calm - it does not, I want it to -
Last week when the weather started to lose her winter chill I went for a walk in my backyard and was reminded of perspective. My neighbors chairs were a wonderful reminder that there is a time to look back and then there is a place where I believe we are supposed to live - looking out, looking beyond ourselves and our fear. You see if one was sitting in the chairs and only looked at the chairs we would miss the most divine view of all ~
Enjoy,
