Flying

I am flying tomorrow. I absolutely enjoy my time in a plane. No matter what the circumstances are on the ground, at 30,000 feet the world, the heavens, and life look gorgeous.

My favorite place on the plane is any window seat. I like peering out that portal and staring at the ground below. Everything is so tiny. It’s like viewing Matchbox City. The smallness of the world is apparent up in the clear blue, endless heavens. It offers a terrific perspective on how small we really are. God, however, is in those endless heavens.

I have no idea where God really is. I know He dwells in the hearts and minds of the believer. But, I like to think of His being in that cloudless expanse. The endless light of the skies makes me think of His holiness and purity. Yet, if God doesn’t live in the heavens, then the heavens certainly still reflect His essence.

Scripture says that one day, “You will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven” (Mark 14:62). Boy I hope I am flying that day.
