God Sees The Bigger Picture

We have a persistent tendency to think “here and now”. We want only good things to happen to us—that’s understandable—and we want them to happen HERE and NOW. But God always sees from a broader, totally inclusive, fully informed, ETERNAL perspective. This makes a lot of what happens, difficult for us to understand. But God is always in control and He always has a purpose.

It helps when things are tough to try to use the eternal perspective to look at your life. It's helped me alot since you first brought this concept up.

And JC appreciates it when he does something that he thinks is going to annoy me. :)

Thanks, Mary. I'm glad that thought was helpful. And it's always good to be of assistance to JC!
