Our word this week is perspective:
Just a part of the pot
- Raphael Petrucci was quoted as saying, “The fact is we have confused one system of perspective with perspective as a whole”.
- Let’s face it our eyes and our minds are easily deceived. What we perceive as real many times has more to do with where we are standing than what is true. Perspective is important. The story as we see it lends a piece of the truth to the world, but lets not confuse what we understand with the whole truth. Only God knows that and He has yet to show all His cards.
- That is what the Scriptures mean when they say, “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.” 2 Cor. 2:9 NLT
Tell me about a time when your limited perspective caused you to second guess God.
If you would like to write your own perspective post join the gang over at: http://jakesprinters.wordpress.com/2013/05/27/sunday-post-perspective/
I’ll give this some thought and try to add something eloquent to the mix. I believe you are following my blog as I follow yours, so you’ll know it when you see it. Thanks for the great suggestion.
I am following now Daryl. I will await your post!
Food for thought, Pastor J, indeed. May the Lord bless you. richly!
(Health wise, the RSD has become more progressive and debilitating, but I continue to look to the Author and Finisher of my faith to give me the strength I need in these trying times.)

Dear Sister Paulette,
Thank you for this update on your condition. I will continue to pray for your healing and that your perspective as you walk through this valley would be filled with a divine understanding of His plan for your life which is seated in heavenly places with Christ.
Be most blessed this day!
Pastor J
