I loved the 10,000 ft. view perspective. I remember once when problems abounded at work my boss took me out to the loading dock where the sun was shining through. He told me to look at the specks of dust in the sunlight and to remember that life on earth is just one of those specks. It really reminded me that God has created so much more than just me and the work problems we faced at the time, and helped me put eternity into as much perspective as my human mind could handle. And yes, we may think we are the shining star of Our Life Movie, but we are all children of the King. What a great reminder! Loved your post. Beautifully said!

Love the idea of being a movie "extra." My five-year old was introduced to GoogleEarth the other day and remarked: "That's the way GOD sees us. Right?" In a sense, she's correct. Only we are so much more personal to him. From the standpoint of the topic, I agree with your big-picture theory. God Bless. Great Blog! <em>Esthermay's last blog post..<a href='http://theheartofapastorswife.blogspot.com/2008/08/its-not-about-me.html' rel="nofollow">It's Not About Me. . .</a></em> Great perspective!

I'm so glad that YOU and I are daughters of the King!!! That was truly a very honest answer...but I sure hope my life isn't truly mostly about me...that would mean that I have not grown at all in my life... Thank you for sharing! I've enjoyed looking around your blog at new things I haven't seen. Is the week in review...your meme...or just your idea of summary. You may want to include mentioning some BLOGS that caught your eye that week...a special insight you gained from a well written one...just a suggestion! I'm blessed!

I know I often get stuck in the "me, me, me" rut, but I don't think it's in a selfish way (like, "I want/need that now, it's all about my needs," etc.)...it's more like I don't like the situation I'm in and I try to figure out ways to change it. But handing it over to God to figure out for me always works, even if it's for one day. I just hand it over to him the next day if I'm still worried about it, and so on... <em>Lisa's last blog post..<a href='http://acomforterisnotabedspread.blogspot.com/2008/08/nurture-nature-and-hoping-for-best.html' rel="nofollow">Nurture, Nature, and Hoping for the Best</a></em> Annie, your answer was the best.

When I hear the phrase, it makes me stop and think about what God would want me to do or say. I guess it takes me back to the other catch phrase, "What would Jesus do?"
