Any time I am in Canon City, Colorado I try to take the leisurely trip across Skyline Drive.
Last week when I attended a funeral in Florence, Colorado, I took some time to drive through neighboring Canon City. One of my favorite spots is Skyline Drive. There is something about getting a different perspective when you rise above the landscape. The view certainly did not disappoint.
I find this approach helpful in day-to-day life when problems or difficult issues seem to circling. How do I get a better vantage point to see the circumstances clearly and unobstructed? Obviously, that first step is prayer. Even though that seems obvious, I know there have been more than a few occasions in which I tried everything myself and then turned to prayer as a last resort. Yes, I admit that I am still working on getting my priorities right from time to time.
Speaking of priorities, are you still fervently praying for the souls of the faithful departed? Use this month of November to be a true blessing to those who need your prayers.
