Driving to work today we were listening to Chris Tomlin. As he sang the words, “the earth is filled with His glory” I looked out of the car and saw a small child, about 6 years old digging through the huge trash heap that is on the side of the road, he was looking for breakfast.

The earth is filled with Your glory? The startling image still haunts my mind. Where is this glory? The glory of God? Some will find glory in only the miraculous. Others will find it in triumph – today I chose to see it in the trash heap in Freetown.

But where is it? How do I see the glory there? There is nothing majestic, beautiful, or magnificent about the gutters down Spur Road, but it was there that God broke through the veil and showed me His other side. My God is the God of the weak and the frail. He is present and involved – even in the trash heaps…especially in the trash heaps!
