Perspective


Recently I've been having some good time with God. I've been spending more time in prayer and more time in His Word, and its been a blast. I have truly enjoyed spending time in the presence of God Almighty.

As I've been enjoying some good God time lately something kind of surprising has happened. Actually, it's not all that surprising at all when I think about it. It's just that I hadn't anticipated it happening. But, as I've been spending more time with God, I've realized that things that sometimes worry me haven't seemed as that big of a deal. Don't get me wrong, there are still challenges that I face and situations that only God can handle. It's just that in the past these things have seemed like a much bigger deal than they do now.

I suppose that's what perspective does for you though. The closer I get to the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the Creator and Sustainer of all things, the smaller everything else seems. I mean really, what are my problems compared to the God of the universe? I guess that's why Paul encourages to always rejoice, because there is nothing that is bigger than God.

  1. YAY!! :) I totally agree. I've been spending more time getting closer to God lately, and it's so true how my problems are like...nothingness when I see them through God's eyes. :)
