Seeing the Bigger Picture

Lately I have been thinking a lot about how enormous God is.  I mean seriously, He created the Universe, and that is pretty big!  This generation has been labeled a “me” generation.  We put ourselves first and then once we are okay we start to be concerned about others.  I think this generation wants to break free from that stereotype.  I have talked with way too many teenagers who are concerned with helping the world become a better place.  I believe we are starting to see the bigger picture.  We know that God is at work in Africa just like he is at work here in the U.S.A.  So the challenge to us is seeing past our own little perspective and try to catch a glimpse of God’s perspective on things.  When we operate from that mindset, we live healthier and more purposed lives.
