THE COVER


Song - Alabaster Boc by: Cece Winans

I have read many books.  The saying you can't judge a book by it's cover....is very true.  I have learned to not even consider the cover as a judgement.  I read the reviews, I read the preface. 

Many like to cookie cut things.  Like we are all are in an assembly line.  What they forget is that God like uniqueness. If you don't believe me, look at nature.  Some of the strange looking creatures under the sea.  How different the insects look with all their strange shapes, sizes and colors.  Try to find a snow flake that is exactly like another.  We are all different in so many ways, no matter what the things we have in common.

Everyone comes from different circumstances. Some have been raised in a rich environment, some in poverty.  Some have college degrees, others never even finished school.  Some are proper, others are rough around the edges.  Some  are tall, others are short.  Some are skinny, some not so much...lolol  Some are gifted with music others can't carry a tune.  Some can write elegant words to soothe the ears, others can't form a good sentence.  

So to judge or put limits on what God can do through each other, is foolishness.  God knows where each of us are.  He knows what we lived in, walked through, and experienced and most importantly, where he is taking us to.  That is why he IS the judge, and decider of our lives.

You can see a homeless, drunk on a bench, disregard him, but God may see a Missionary willing to give up everything for the one who rescues him.  

You may see a prostitute and think such a shame.  God may see a lonely heart, that will adore him till the day she dies...for changing her and giving her a new life.

You may see a drug addicted person, alcoholic driven, porn pervert, and be disgusted.  God sees a chance to flex his spiritual muscles and show them that he is the GREAT I AM.  He can change their perspective, the view and desires.  Give them a new life to walk in purity and peace.

Every time I see someone walking down the street, or when I look over into the car next to me, some times it's in a doctors office, or standing alone....I whisper....God save them, change them, provide for them and restore them.

We, as people really haven't much, but temporal things to offer.  Help when you can but never fail to take them to the one who can change them forever....THE GREAT I AM.
