A Different Perspective

"For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways," says the LORD, "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts." ~ Isaiah 55:8-9


Have you ever flown on an airplane and had a window seat? I always like sitting by the window because that way I can see everything! If you've ever watched out the window you've seen that everything gets SO SMALL, the further up you get. Your city, your town, your neighborhood, the people, the establishments all begin to shrink and eventually even disappear. God tells us in this scripture that His thoughts are so far above ours...just as the Heavens are so far from the earth... Just think of the expanse of that distance - its HUGE! And when you are up so high in the clouds, which aren't even reaching heaven, you see everything from a different perspective. And that's how God sees things in our lives. He see's the big picture. He see's the surroundings. He knows our past, present and future...what's been..what's to come. If only we will trust the One who see's all, knows all, and knows what's best for us. We are just tiny dots when He looks down on us! He see's the whole picture! Trust Him!
