Life is amazing!
Sometimes you can live from day to day
with the same-old, same-old routine --
then suddenly,
whammo!
You can see, or hear,
or experience something
remarkable and life changing -- either for you --
or for
someone else,
and you were privileged to be part of it.
It depends on where we look, and how we look.
Is our vision down
the long and empty tunnel
of self-centeredness, making us blind?
Or is it through the
prism of God-revealed
truth that is so lovingly offered to us?
Day by
day, hour by hour,
the choice is ours.
Each choice will determine our future life.
Will it be desolate and filled with spiritual and
material poverty,
or will it be filled
with truth and beauty, love and light?
WE CHOOSE!
And accordingly, we
pray…
It all depends on our
V I E W P O I N T .

P O I N T
March 10, 2009, with
camera at-the-ready, I stood at my bedroom
window marveling at the changing
skies of the dawn.
The window faces
east, and over the roof and treetops,
beautiful things were happening.
In between the
pictures: “Dawn” and “Dawn Again”, a rescue ambulance approached and stopped before a door to my left, across the street.
The well-trained,
experienced crew did their work, and a man was helped.
As the human drama
unfolded, I saw the skies declaring God’s glory,
and I felt His loving
Presence.
Dawn Again, March 10, 2009
Several days later, as two men began to replace
damaged siding on the back of my house,
a freak accident occurred.
The ladder
on which a man
was standing at the second-story level, began to slip.
It
quickly came down to the deck carrying its passenger,
and landed on his left
leg.
Blanket and pillows were provided, and prayer was offered.
Within a few
minutes, a rescue crew arrived.
Also, my camera was at-the-ready.
Human
drama was again accompanied by witness
of God’s loving care.
While we regret the accident, and the man's injury,
we are thankful
that the man is now healing from several breaks
of his lower leg, and that insurance will cover the cost.
He is thankful, and at peace.
Welcome to our
point-of-view, because
