This verse sound rather "hillbilly speak" when you read this version from Eugene Peterson, but the message is cool. Only, when I stop and think about it (like I did this morning) it reveals to me that I'm not really acting like a stranger here on Earth. I think as I am examining my life, actions, and interaction with my world...I am coming to the conclusion that I really have made this world my home. That's not a fun conclusion.
"Open my eyes so I can see
what you show me of your miracle-wonders.
I'm a stranger in these parts;
give me clear directions."
Ps 119:18-19
God, help me live today as if I don't live here.
p.s. Doesn't this photo just look relaxing?
