His View of Things

There is a gentle rain this morning in Oxford Ms. The soft weather reminds me of  four days I spent in Ireland a few years ago. Everything there and here is so green, so many shades of green. The silence out here in the country is deep and lovely. A friend of mine who has been to the Holy Land says that the view from the Mount of Olives is deep and lovely. He says to stand where Jesus stood and to see what Jesus saw is a mystical experience. I pray that no matter where we stand, that we can learn to see the world the way Jesus does. To expect the places we live, work, play, suffer, and love, to become the places of experiencing Jesus' Sacred Heart and Vision. The simple lives we live can become deeply meaningful because He is. In class today, or work, or even on our days off, may we meditate on His view of things.
