A slow old man in contrast to a jet plane

Do we take the time to smell the coffee or the roses, as the expressions say? There is so much around us for our five senses to enjoy. Let us not miss these opportunities which are blessings for us as well as sometimes giving us the blessing of serving others. 1 Kings 18:43 "Go and look towards the sea he told his servant. And he went up and looked. 'There is nothing there', he said. Seven times Elijah said, 'Go back'." Seven often depicts fullness in the bible. Let us look fully and not overlook the blessings God has for us.
