Perspective

Today before our plane could leave we had to de-ice and  it took awhile so our plane arrived late in Baltimore. This gave Nora more time to get ready to pick me up and we re able to buy paint for her house. Even late can be a good thing when you're looking for God at work.

When we took off from the airport it was still dark, the street lights of the city creating points of light in the darkness. We lifted up through the misty cover of sky, and when we arrived above the blanket of clouds the horizon shone red from the rising sun. Darkness still shrouded the earth below but light had begun to dawn above.

  1. Your last sentence, about it being dark below but light beginning to shine above -- that pretty well sums up our lives. Even when we don't see the light, it is shining above us and growing brighter for us as we trust in Christ.

  2. Amen Ginger. I thought about how God always lives in light.
