Just Take A Look …
Those words are a message to us all, one that forces us to reach back for that something extra when circumstances and situations threaten to run us over, when it seems that we’re at our wit’s end.
Just take a look.
That’s all that’s being asked of us. Whether it be around us or behind us. Definitely ahead of us. Just make sure we’re aware. Make sure we look at the important things, such as how wonderfully we’re made, even with our flaws. How much those we love mean to us, making sure that, after we take a look at them — seeing what God has done — we love them just a little bit more.
Those words, “Look what God has done …,” can well describe our feelings regarding life and our thankfulness for that gift. It also describes what should be our thankfulness for the planning, the dedication, the detail, the prayer that has come to fruition in the form of a spectacular stage play that celebrates life, love and hope. That forces us to take a look at what God has done.
Indeed, those five words will lead us, if we look, to three words that we’ve undoubtedly celebrated at some point in our lives and would do well to celebrate now, whenever we get the chance.
These three words? “The Color Purple.“
