Elevation

“I am moving in feet instead of inches,” she said with relief.

This statement felt profound to me. How do we move through our lives? Do we move in inches or feet? Do we try to savor or ignore details? Do we feel accomplished or overwhelmed with the big picture? Maybe you have a preference for one over the other but how often do we see the need that moving in feet requires inches or a focus on inches results in feet?

In your relationships, where do you see yourself moving in feet? Where do you see yourself focusing on the details? To be sure, moving in feet can provide a sense of accomplishment as you see progress, but moving in inches provides the details and textures to the life of progress.

So do you take time to recognize each one as you move through life?

Where in your journey with God do you find yourself today…moving in feet or inches?…moving in large or small spaces? Which seems the hardest at this time? Which seems more keyed to the journey for you in this time and space? It may be a season to look at the details in and around you. Or it might be a season to embrace the bigness of the journey with God. OR it may be a season to do both. I dunno as I cannot speak for anyone but myself.

Today what is your elevation feet, inches, or both?

“Love

Lift me up out of these blues

Won’t you tell me something true

I believe in you.”
