You were standing on the mountain, holding to the shepherds hand. The valley you’d just came through was hard to understand. Then the shepherd draws you closer, there’s something he wants you to see. And he points back to the valley, and unfolds it’s mystery.
As the eagles soar around you, and you look back on where you’ve been, one by one he answers questions that he did not answer then. He now shows you the danger of going your own way; all those roads you thought were better would have led your soul astray.
He reminds you of that moment when you could not make it through. Now you see one set of footprints where he reached down and carried you. As your tears fall on his shoulder and you thank him for his love, he says “Child, i knew that one day you’d see this valley from above.”
Things look different on a mountain from a Shepherd’s point of view, standing high above the trials that He brought you safely through. All the valleys, disappointments, will never look the same to you, for things look different on the mountain from the Shepherd’s point of view.
