The View From Above
I recently had the privilege of taking my first commercial airplane ride. I had moments of anxiety the day before my trip but God gave me grace and everything went very smoothly.
As I was looking down at the earth from above the clouds, I had a small picture of what we must look like to God. The houses are toys, the vehicles look like ants, people may as well be dust. I couldn’t see them at all. That part is unlike God for, as He looks down, He does see us but we are so small in the scheme of things. He could accomplish anything He wanted without us, yet He chooses to use us small, insignificant humans to accomplish His purposes on this earth.
God sees everything we do–good and bad, selfless or selfish. No matter how great you think you are, without God, you are nothing. Don’t become puffed up for you have nothing to brag about save Christ and Him crucified. When you begin to see yourself as God sees you, that’s when you can accomplish tremendous things for His Kingdom.
