I don't read a lot of books...not necessary since I have many books read to me by my favorite person...Michael. He loves to read to me and I love his doing it. Gosh, I can't tell you how many books we've read. Besides books, I love quotes. Guess you notice how much I love, huh? Something's been gnawing at me and today I read Terry Rush's blog where he wrote about pride and something it tends to do in the life of a church.

C. S. Lewis wrote "A proud man is always looking down on things and people, and, of course, as long as you're looking down, you can't see something that is above you." Groups tend to get the idea that 'they' know what's best and right for everyone else...and tend to look down on those out of their 'circle'...what do you think about it? For some time, I've been working on my attitude and thankfully I am much more accepting of those who disagree with me...after all, who am I? Certainly I am not a judge...that's Gods' court and I don't mean to interfere.


Besides, if I'm looking down I can't see where I'm going and as spastic as I am, I'd be run over and squished...flatter than a pancake and then, where would I be? Covered with goop and swallowed up, that's where. So I'm not lookin' down on others; I'm lookin' up at beautiful things, those gifts that God has given me. A breath of fresh air and it's filling.
