I was in Bangkok last week at the movies. First off I love the movies in Thailand, you choose your seat so you don't have to get to the theater early because your seat is waiting for you. Now back to the King - when you go to the movies, they show all kinds of ads before the movie starts, and then everyone stands and pays respect to the King. They show a video while playing the national anthem. I remember the first time it happened I had no idea what was going on, but now it is just a part of the process, for me. But for the Thai people they truly love and respect their King, I think they think it is an honor.
So, I got to thinking about the King we serve, on of his names is King above all Kings, but do we show him love and respect like this mortal man. I know that often I am guilty of relegating him to a small part of my life - not a place of honor. I think it is a wonderful thing when worldly things can teach me a lesson about my Heavenly King.
