AWESOME

This is another of those pet words some people love to banter around. You know use it to mean something truly amazing.

Course that is all subjective. I had this one person I knew that used this word to pretty much describe everything. Which took the impact out of its meaning from my view.

This person never seem to see it that way. Well to be honest the individual wasn't quite accustom to shall we say the sophisticated life. So for this person reruns on television were awesome. We didn't spend a lot time together.

What is really spectacular? Again it depends on the person. And when it comes to spiritual matters it can be even a bigger problem.

For while if you have faith even dawn can be awesome, you might have trouble getting somebody who is asleep to appreciate that reality. And even more so if they are asleep.

The point I guess is how tough it is to put our values on somebody else. And with God even more so.

Doesn't make them wrong, just hard to express adequately at times. So we must accept we can't always do that.

I will admit that when God's spirit touches in some special and you really are led to see the Lord has done as awesome it can truly overwhelm. It just touches so powerful to feel that reality.

Again it doesn't work in terms of others. Your eyes can't necessarily touch their hearts. And if you think they can then you are only kidding yourself.

But to be able to wake up and face the morning with faith's eyes gives it a special joy. It makes it come alive and be so powerful.

The heart can fly on wings of such happiness, even if it is only for a moment. But it is more than some will ever have.

Riches are the measure of life that fills the soul when it comes from God. It is a cold and lifeless gold if it is only from the bank.

We can embrace it or love it, but if we never see God among the pearls we are impoverished. Only we may not even accept it.

To move ahead is to savor the joys beyond our pocketbook. And since God inspires it that can truly grant us such calm and peace. A way to lift the night where others are in shadows. One path in solitude where others may not follow that can truly echo in the chants of awesome.
