"Looking Up"

Have you ever felt like you were down in a deep hole looking up at everything and everyone around you? Does it seem like the world is moving at a very fast pace and somehow you are left behind? We sometimes spend much of our lives trying to "catch up" on the many things we miss.

Recently, I saw city workers digging a gigantic hole in order to put a sidewalk into place. Something seemed odd about that picture to me. I know almost nothing about preparing sidewalks, but the whole process seemed a bit strange and overblown to me. They are digging a hole just to cover it up once again.

It is good for us to "look up" from time to time and sense something bigger and greater than ourselves. We can discover a wonderful world that God has created and enjoy many who alongside of us are trying to make it a better place. Let's "look up" this week and sense the wonder of God's creation.
