Just say…Vacation (part 1)
Tuesday, August 11th, 2009When this blog posts, I will be on a beautiful island in Lake Winnipesaukee (NH) with some of my family. But I’m writing it while on an airplane.
I think this is pretty amazing stuff.
Here I am, high above the Earth. As I look down I see mountains, rivers, lakes, highways, towns and cities. There are dark places where the clouds make shadows on the ground.
1890 miles to go.
Millions of people are going about their day with no idea, and mostly not caring, that I am looking down on them.
That is such a sad thought. Wait! I’m getting ahead of myself ’cause that’s not the sad thought.
I think it’s often that way with God. People have no idea He’s there watching over them, and many don’t care.
If I want the people to know me, I have to bring myself to them, and typically, someone will introduce me.
God brings Himself to people, and sometimes we need to do an introduction.
Are we doing that? Are we taking the time to help people initiate the most important meeting that any of us will have in our life?
“Person, this is God. And have you met His Son?”
Of course it’s not that easy, but don’t get all bogged down in the words because, after all, if you don’t know what to say, God does.
1423 miles to go.
Peace!
