sometimes we just don't get it.
we fight and try and try thinking that it is OUR fault, OUR doing. as if we are able to change everything if we just believe more. we are constantly believing that other people are better at it than us, and so we strive to THEIR seeming "level" instead of knowing we are judged by only One whose evaluation truly matters.
"...For God has NO favorites."
this was the big giant punctuation mark to my reading of Colossians 3 this morning. after being instructed on how to live the good life. to put to death our earthly desires, to get rid of anger and to think about the things of Heaven. and then a firm reminder.
do we really believe that we are on an equal playing field? that God sees but two kinds of people, those who are lost and those who are found?
