Come on - look around!!


Life finds you in a lot of places that you never dreamed you would be. You are so busy trying to hang on that you forget the scenery that is all around you. Looking at this picture made me think about this. I was enjoying the beauty of the mountain heights when I got the "heebie-jeebies" realizing that these people were walking at that height without a railing or any safety net! I doubt that they stopped to enjoy their surroundings very much - you know how looking down from a height can cause heart failure?! Much of life is spent putting one foot in front of another to survive. I am striving to forget the fear and take a good look at the beauty of life. Besides, we have an everlasting Arm under us. Deuteronomy 33:27 says "The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them." Fear, did anybody say "Fear?" Why should I fear? Of whom shall I be afraid? Hang on and sometime, just take in the beautiful scenery around you....
