I Timothy 6:20
Just look at her butt. Is my butt that big? Deep down I don't care for this person so I jump on board and continue to diminish the character of this person until there is nothing left but to spit out the bones-unbeknownst to her. The conversation is so derogatory that it would knock an Angel right out of its' cozy nest on a snow glisten night.
Why must we do this to each other?
There is something about peering into the life of another. We are rubbernecking in a sense.
Whether we are the victim or the bystander, we are all but small frail humans. Wedesperately seek to be accepted and loved at any cost.
We would sell our soul to the Devil if it meant one momentof pleasure. (Genesis 25:29-34)
We all have been there. Some are still there. We want to matter to someone. We would rather suffer in pain and agony than to not matter at all. This is why the EmergencyRooms are so full. Many of the patient's injuries sadly, are self-inflicted.
What are we looking for?
Ae are looking to measure up; to be measured by and yet, when it comes to God we won't let Him fill our measuring cup. We live in secret. We live in darkness. (Isaiah 45:19)
It is only in that small flicker of light, a fleeting glimpse of trust and where we can call out for hope in a newfound care. So many people try to describe a God as one that is scurrying around trying to get His house in order but this isn't the case. The Resurrection of Christ was not some desperate last-minute thought ofGod's part to save the Hero. It was God's original plan all along.
His Son,Jesus was and is our Hope.
Prayer: MayJesus be your hope
