Learning How to Flourish in God's Grace

from God’s perspective

I have a tendency to worry about things that I really can’t control. I think we all do to a certain extent.

Personally I spend a good amount of time concerned with what’s going to happen next; what the next steps will be, how the future will play out. Honestly, I don’t know why, because I really can’t do anything but live my life and let God work out the rest.

Today as my flight was taking off, I was amazed at how much I could see from the air. Literally, I could see from the airport, past my apartment, to the END of Florida. And then it hit me. This is the big picture. This is what God sees.

At some point, our vision leads to the horizon, and we have to trust God for what lies beyond that point until we get there for ourselves. And knowing that God can see the BIG picture, far beyond what we can imagine; it would serve us (especially me) well to trust that He has everything worked out. I think Albert Einstein said it best, “All I have seen teaches me to trust the creator for all I have not seen.”

Just my thoughts! Peace and blessings!

This can’t be for real…

As I was doing my morning perusal of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, I found this article. Here’s an excerpt:

A man says he was so consumed by the spirit of God that he fell and hit his head while worshipping.

Now he wants Lakewind Church to pay $2.5 million for medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.

Matt Lincoln says he is suing after the church’s insurance company denied his claim for medical bills.

Seriously.  People will SUE for ANYTHING…this is about to be, no, this is ridiculous.  Sigh.
