Good morning. This is Bob Peden of Central a United Methodist
Community in Meridian, MS. This morning I am standing on the beach,
looking out across the Gulf of Mexico. A person of average height can see
just slightly less than 3 miles out to the horizon. Altitude helps, but even if
you were standing on top of Mount Everest and no weather or other
mountains were in your way you would still only be able to see about 200
miles. The earth is 24 thousand miles around. This illustrates how
incredibly short-sighted we are. God is not bound by these limitations.
God’s vision includes the whole world and not just the earth but the entire
universe for all time. As humans beings we have a very limited perspective
not only on the face of the earth but in all matters. We are people of the
earth and can never achieve God’s perspective but it is necessary for us to
broaden ours that we might see others as God sees them.
