Have you ever been driving towards your destination and seen those signs that say scenic route, or one that announces a state park or lake or something? Yes, I have too. Most days I just keep going but sometimes my dear hubby and I will go see what that sign is pointing to. We followed one such sign and we found a mountain called Mount Scott in Oklahoma. We were rewarded with breath taking beauty that day and while we were looking out from the top of that mountain it got me to thinking . . .
How sometimes we will be headed a certain direction in our life and suddenly something will sidetrack us . . .
Sometimes those circumstances will almost overwhelm us . . .
and weigh us down . . .

How sometimes we will be headed a certain direction in our life and suddenly something will sidetrack us . . .
Sometimes those circumstances will almost overwhelm us . . .
and weigh us down . . .
There are such complexities to negotiate . . .
details that need our attention . . .
sometimes the way is long and very high . . .
but if we keep on moving forward then soon . . .
we will begin to see things from a different perspective . . .
we can find blessings next to those big problems
we can look at things from a higher place . . .
and find blessings that we might have otherwise missed . . .
lots of different blessings . . .
and such beauty . . .
and sometimes that undesired trek up a mountain in our life will be worth it.
