blue clear sky

College is over & summer has officially begun. The days between the last day of classes & graduation were wonderful. The semester ended with just as much fun as it began. But today, it wa time to go home.

I have only flown once before--to Orlando in 2000, so I was a little tentative about flying. After a slight hold up (I had to check in an extra bag), Jarid & I loaded American Airline flight 2495 out of O'Hare to Kansas City. The short flight gave me plenty of time to think as I stared out of the window into the blue clear sky. Clouds obstructed my view of cities during the first half of the flight. As I squinted to look out on the bright white clouds that were laid out like a carpet under the plane, I realized the majesty of my God. Each cloud had its own unique texture. What a God! To give such attention to so minute details! As we flew over the Mississippi River, the clouds cleared & I was able to see the cities & farms below. Do you realize how small everything is at 34,000 feet? It put things into perspective.

God thinks about me, a tiny speck on the face of the earth. He not only thinks about me, but also wants a living, vibrant relationship with me. How amazing is it that the God who made the clouds, the sea, the Earth, & the blue clear sky cares about me?

God is so good to me. He cares about every area in my life. For now, I am going to focus on the will of the God who thinks about me & keep dreaming of the things He will bring out of the blue clear sky.
