Do You See It?

Driving down a winding road. Enjoying all the beautiful views of what I call mountains (really just hills), we rounded a corner and the trees opened up and this is the view we saw.
The trees framed this photograph and in the middle of the frame there was this beautiful white steeple. Peeking out above the trees calling, beckoning all who glimpse it. Nestled in the rolling hills. Peaceful, quiet, proud, tall.

Thinking about this steeple, it is impressed upon me that the steeple represents my christian walk. Is my life this beautiful steeple standing tall, so anyone who is passing by can see Christ in me? Or is it hidden, not easily seen...people pass by me every day and don't see anything different about me.

Humbling to think about, scary to look at yourself in the mirror and not know if you are really living your life the way Christ calls you to live.

I pray my steeple is showing...
