Differing Perspectives

My friend Rachel posted this song on her blog today and I just had to repost it here. It rings soooo true.

I often wonder how my kids view of God is being affected as a result of how I pray. We always pray at night for good rest, protection, good health and a lot of other things and people. We always start out with being thankful as well. Now it’s not bad to pray for those things but I also want to teach them and walk by example when we don’t get those things that God is still good. He see’s the big picture. He has my best in mind even if that means walking through trials and pain. Sometimes God and I have differing perspectives. I see pain and He sees blessing.

I hope you listen and are blessed by this song today too.
