Viewpoint


I love this picture. Brent took it while we were driving in Canada recently. We were winding down a country road and the view was spectacular. The horse serenely standing before the majestic mountain (which you can't see in the picture)definitely screamed "Kodak moment". I told Brent to quickly take the picture as we rolled down the road. It wasn't until I got home that I saw the picture. As you notice, the horse doesn't have his head! It still is a beautiful picture, isn't it? Or does the headless horse distract you from the beauty?

God's beauty is all around us. His grace is all around us. We stand in the most beautfiul scenery, yet get distracted by something as silly as a headless horse. He really is amazing and majestic. That will not change...ever. Our viewpoint will change, we will get distracted (and rightfully so), but He will be there.

Psalm 90:16-17

"Let thy work appear unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their children.

And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us: and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; yea, the work of our hands establish thou it."
