Rooftops


My experiences with poverty and its effects have mostly been from the rooftops. I have a strong suspicion that what I see from way up high does not help me really know. I once went to Phantom of the Opera. We sat in one of the farthest rows from the stage, separated from the actors by both distance and height. There were five of us. We shared the binoculars, but even with the aid of magnification, I suspect it was a different event in the front row. My prayer for this study is that each of us who are choosing to invest a little of our time here will be transported to a place where we can more clearly see. Maybe even see as our Heavenly Father does. Just maybe. Can't wait!
