Consider this quote:
“PEOPLE are the consciousness of God in the world, the closest thing to Him in the physical realm…. If man is really fashioned in the image of God, then clearly it follows that there is nothing on earth so near to God as a human being. To be in the presence of humanity… is to be closer to God than when looking up into a starry sky or at a beautiful sunset…”
Hmmmmm, wow, do I really appreciate people for the picture of God that they give me? Do I really truly love people so much, and choose to see God through them?? I love that quote, and it’s really made me search my heart about how I view the people around me. I walked down the street one day, thinking all the while that each person I meet is a picture of God, in some way or another… Makes me do a lot of heart-searching!
Hey, any of you ever see black sand?? Me neither, until this weekend in Monterrico on the Pacific Coast. I think it’s hotter than normal white sand, maybe because it’s volcanic ash??
Okay, so maybe it’s because we’re so far south…
Kris has been sick the past few days, actually almost the past week. We’re thinking it’s probably a reaction to the food, because several other people in the guest house are sick too… Please pray for her complete recovery – it’s no fun being sick anywhere, but especially here…
Just a few thoughts from sunny Antigua…
