Did you know that icons started as pictures with great spiritual significance? Anyway, I like what this artist writes about understanding...
TO UNDERSTAND IS
TO STAND UNDER
WHICH IS TO LOOK UP TO
WHICH IS A GOOD WAY TO
UNDERSTAND
~Corita Kent~
So....let's make this icon spiritual....just for fun :)
If you need some understanding, it could be because you've allowed your situation to overtake (that is to take over :) you and now you can't see which way to go....or, you have not acknowledged (that is to ledge your acknow....just kidding, that one doesn't work!) your true position and humbled yourself under GOD....either way, we LOOK UP for understanding.
We look things up to better our knowledge...there is something in that word that I actually do really like and that is that our knowledge has an edge....a limit....a ledge rather, which is significant because we think we are up high in our level of knowledge, but we still hit limits. And, when we hit a limit when we are up high, that requires a pretty creative solution that we can't always google, right? Sorry, Google, but sometimes the only answer is....refer to GOD!
Even if we are on the highest ledge "in the know", we still can't see everything....GOD's ways are still higher and we have to seek Him for understanding.
