Which view is your view?

THREE PEOPLE WERE visiting the Grand Canyon — a painter, a preacher, and a cowboy…

Looking over the massive canyon, each one verbalized his observation:

“Incredible!” the painter said.  “I’d love to paint a picture of this!”

The preacher waved his arms and cried, “Glory!  Look what God has done!”

The cowboy exclaimed, “I’d sure hate to lose a cow down there!”

THOUGHT: What do you see when you look at your situation?  An illustration of God’s handiwork, or just someplace to lose a cow?  (Stan Towler)

“Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things re pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.”  Philippians 4:8
