When I was a little girl, my family took a road trip to Florida. I don't remember the name of the place, but on the way, we stopped somewhere in the mountains. This place had a beautiful view of a vast area of land. My mom says we could see several states from that spot. However, from the view of a child, I thought I could see the world! I was mesmerized! When I first discovered the vastness of God's unfailing love, I was that little girl again in awe! I saw the world like I had never seen it before! The view took my breath away!
I want to grasp tightly to that view and not let it fall to the back of my mind. I want to open my eyes each morning, soaking in the beauty of His everlasting love and mercy. I may not be standing on top of a mountain, but each day I am blessed with a view of hills and valleys that display His amazing Grace and unfailing love! So when you wake in the morning, what will you see? Will it be a view in the back of your mind? Or will you take a step forward with renewed awe and see the vastness of the "world" before you? Today, if you haven't already, take a moment to take it in with fresh eyes. Eyes of wonder, like that of a child. Take in the vastness of His love and mercy and grace....like a child of God. "But because of his great love for us, God , who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions-it is by grace you have been saved." Blessings, Elizabeth
