eternal perspective God can give us. It's beautiful, it's lovely, and most of all, it's sweet. Every time I get down, focus on myself, or become a bit prideful, He somehow finds a way to smack me with a dose of eternal reality. Thank goodness He does too! I love it. Life is absolutely wonderful when we have an eternal perspective. We can use it to combat fear, doubt, or uncertainty - with faith. :) God is good!I am also very grateful for agency. The power God has given me and each of us to be agents for ourselves; to act and not simply be acted upon. Yeah, I'll admit, sometimes I think it would be loads easier if God just told us where to go, when to go, and how to get there specifically. But then how would we ever grow? How would we learn to make decisions on our own and just come to Him for counsel? We wouldn't. He gives us the gift to choose how our lives will turn out, because He gives us the opportunity to choose how we will act and react in every situation. Praise be to God, the Almighty and Omnipotent!
