The Journey Is The Destination

Taken from the balcony of our room...Amazing

Isn't it amazing what perspective can do to our lives? In particular, a perspective that puts one in front of what God intended for us to see in the first place? Perspective can change our focus, a perspective focused on God's magnificence can cause our seemingly complex and unending problems and challenges seem small. It's what happens to me when I get a perspective like that. I'm reminded of the verse David quoted as he gazed upon the grandeur of heaven:

8:1 O Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory above the heavens.
2 Out of the mouth of babies and infants,
you have established strength because of your foes,
to still the enemy and the avenger.

3 When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,
4 what is man that you are mindful of him,
and the son of man that you care for him?

5 Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beings [2]
and crowned him with glory and honor.
6 You have given him dominion over the works of your hands;

you have put all things under his feet,
7 all sheep and oxen,
and also the beasts of the field,
8 the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea,
whatever passes along the paths of the seas.

9 O Lord, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
