Thoughts for Today

MONDAY! Now for the week,,, Had a great day yesterday! It is so grand to live in a nation of free speech,, freely able to move around from place to place.... listen to this, or that,, or not listen,, walk,, ride in the car, or on the bike ,, (in most places,,) without being bullied by law enforcement,,, but helped by them with a smile... oh yes,, it is good to be an American,, live here in the land of the free, and not worry about what or who , if anyone is listening in on you,, for you should be talking, and saying whatever you don't care if the big house, okr anyone is listening or not... so go ahead and enjoy this great freedom ,,, and as you look around you at all that surrounds you, just enjoy what you see! May God bless each of you today, another of His gifts to us,,,and they just keep on pouring in,,, right? SMALL,, BUT SOOO BIG ! I look out in the yard,, and I see a fairly big yard.. I look down the road,, I can see a fair distance, I look up, and I can see eternity. I think of our little nest, and I see, in my mind, Atlanta, Macon,, New York, California, Alaska,, Japan,, places I have been and they are far away,, out of natural sight, but not sub-conscience,, there we still have our pictures of far away places we have visited...and then I look on T.V. see the vast countries,, their land, their forests, their water falls, their jungles, their deserts,, their environments..and how vast and big they are,, wishing I could see them all,, walk on their grounds,, live with them and see their customs.. be a part of them also. Yes , this earth is so vast, we will not be able to see it all, except through T.V. ,computers , and films.. I then stop and think , how are we in this vast pool of people, in such a large distances apart,, able to make a difference. I then think of God,, how He made it for us all to enjoy,, to see.. and as I read the Genesis of the Bible, I do seem to see more, as I see Him building this great earth,, and then I see, feel , His presence as I talk to Him in Prayer , and I realize , that my little word to Him , is as big as the earth He built,, my presence is known to Him and that is what matters.. Correct? So I realize that I will see the earth in its entirety when I join my God ... so for now, I know that I am just as big as the earth, so no matter how small we are,,, it is a matter of "faith",, that makes us SOOOO BIG! Lord, thank You for the insight that you planted with us.. and thank You for the knowledge of just how big we are, and that is ,,,,,just how big our faith is,,, amen... John HIcks Just looking at creation each day and each night ,, and thanking Him for all I see, for as I look,, I see more and more,, for I look,,, standing beside Him,, who are you standing by , and what are you looking at?
