I had a wonderful visit with two of my cousins yesterday. We had all gotten together at McDonald's so that the kids could play in the play place while we all visited. We had a wonderful time. We had one fun discussion that I thought was interesting. I was holding Jonathan while my cousin was holding her baby. We were having fun talking about what all they are able to do at their different ages. She was looking at Jonathan and asked "His eyes look so far apart." Scott and I just found that so funny. We told her that all our kids eyes were that way. They have different parents than her kids had. Scott popped out a baby picture of Hannah and she said, "Well, I guess so!" It was so funny! Then I was looking at her baby a little later and leaned over to Scott and said, "Isn't her baby's eyes a bit close together."
I guess we all look at things a bit differently. Just imagine how much differently God's view on our lives must be.
Isaiah 55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
It's all a matter of perspective. We should strive to see ourselves from a little more of God's perspective.
Trusting God to help us build a Rock Solid Family one pebble at a time. (Luke 6:48)
I'm glad Stacie and Scott have such a good sense of humor. They could have taken my comment about Jonathan as offensive. I see that as truely letting God's light shine in their hearts and lives- Being slow to take offense. Thank you and glory to God.
ReplyDeleteYou're too sweet to have meant that offensively. :) I just thought it was cute. It gave me a neat illustration on perspective. All I needed to have really made this blog cute was a pic. of our two babies tigether. Their both adorable. :)
