Thought for the Day 4/3/2020

Friday Tale - Perspective

A flower is a weed seen through joyful eyes.

the virtue of anyone or anything is solely in

our perspective. See gold, and there is gold;

see lead and there is lead. If you see this

thistle as a thorny nuisance, then it is a weed.

If you appreciate its bright pink bloom, then

it is a flower. It becomes what you name it.

The power is in your choice,

your perspective, your speaking.

~ Jonathan Lockwood Huie

It was in faith that all these persons died.

They did not receive the things God had

promised, BUT from a long way off, they saw

them, and welcomed them, and admitted

openly that they were foreigners and refugees on earth.

And all these, having gained approval through their faith,

did not receive what was promised, because God had

provided something better for us, so that apart

from us they would not be made perfect. 

~ Hebrews 11:13, 39, 40
