A few hard knocks, had me on my knees. Blood, sweat and tears in many cases, but Its not all bleak and solemn. These are the shadowed bits on the canvas of my life. There are some bright, light and soft colours too, and this book will paint the picture as we gain perspective together. Hence the name Face Value. I have realised that we have a number of mirrors in life. These mirrors show us many images. How we see ourselves. How others see us, our friends, our colleagues, our family, our children. How God sees us. My point is that many times in life we are inside circumstances that seem to overwhelm and have us feel like there is no hope, no end. It will usually feel like this. Reason being, we have lost perspective. We only see a part and not the whole. Perspective is an amazing skill to acquire in life. Its a knowing that no matter what, there is a bigger picture than the moment. Its a piece of the puzzle a chapter in the book of my life. This, has been an anchor to me throughout the many trials of life. I know that the Author and finisher of our lives is in control of every circumstance and every moment and He will complete the good work which He began in us. As you journey with me through the pages, travel light. Youll only need my pair of shoes, water (always a good thing) and an open heart.
