Life is Like an Art Gallery..

The thought hit me today (as partially inspired by a movie clip and partially inspired by my own life and a recent conversation) that things that happen in our life are like a bunch of little, up close pictures. Behind the wall that holds the pictures lies the rest of the image. We try to guess the whole, huge picture from the little ones so much of the time, to know what it all looks like, to help us make sense of the little pieces. But only the gallery's Maker, the Artist, knows that. Someday He may tell us, maybe. But for now we are to walk through His gallery, appreciating each little picture for what it is, trusting that His skill and care make it all come together for the good.
