Looking at one frame

 


Looking at one frame


Looking at one frame

Each day, each moment , only a frame in the film strip, our story

Splicing, editing, a daily routine

 yeah 

it’s only a frame,- one frame in our story


One frame, one scene, but there’s still more to our story

“we look back on the past and ponder over the future,”*

The means, the most winding course, least looked for at times -

Like God placing “the sand as a boundary to the roaring sea”



We write all this because “retelling this story fulfills our joy”

“take the story a little bit farther…”

“I know everything God does endures for all time. 

Nothing can be added to it; nothing can be taken away from it.”*



About this poem-  Looking at One Frame is a poem about how God oversees a perfect plan for our lives.

When we are discouraged at what’s happening in our lives, we must remind ourselves that there’s more to come. We are looking at one frame, or perhaps one scene in the story. Take heart and “take the story a little bit farther”. - Joe Holuta


“You can't change your past, but you can reframe it. 

Find the lesson in it. Find the opportunity in it. Pull the teachable moment out of it and share with others. 

You can't choose your history, but you can choose the story you tell about it."

-James Clear


*Ecclesiastes 3: 11, 14 voice
