Life's Elevator Ride

Good morning and happy Friday. Why is it when I get in a crowded elevator and I have to just squeeze in and ride facing everyone, it feels so weird? Is it really any different than being turned around facing the door?  No, it just doesn't feel right. When we go through our lives facing the wrong way but doing the same thing as others, two things can happen. One, just feel weird and want to turn around and do it like everyone else and feel comfortable. Or two, we see the faces of the people we're riding with in life and can get a better look at them and how they are feeling. Not judging but seeing. A woman in the corner with her face down. A man in the middle looking straight up. Whats happening in their lives and can I be a help to them. Being uncomfortable and out of our comfort zones can be uplifting and powerful. Don't just ride along life like everyone else. Be the person God made you to be and listen to His instructions for you life. Next time you can, ride the elevator backwards. See if God shows you people's lives if you look. In love always. <><
