Where You Look From Makes A Difference
The Higher Up You Are The Further you See

Sent Into Wide Open Spaces
We are not sent into a narrow, limited, restricted commission. It is full of adventure, opportunities and wonder. We are sent into a world here amazing things can and should be happening. Experiiencing things beyong our capabilities.
2 Corinthians 6:11–13 (The Message) 11–13 Dear, dear Corinthians, I can’t tell you how much I long for you to enter this wide-open, spacious life. We didn’t fence you in. The smallness you feel comes from within you. Your lives aren’t small, but you’re living them in a small way. I’m speaking as plainly as I can and with great affection. Open up your lives. Live openly and expansively!
