Things aren't always as they appear


Last month at work, I grabbed a tube of chapstick out of my drawer. Just as I was about to put it on my lips, something caught my eye. Drawing back, I gasped. I wasn’t holding chapstick; I was holding a glue stick!!!

Now I’m notorious for doing stupid stuff, but I’m so glad that I caught myself before making this mistake.

Things aren’t always as they appear. We need to look so that we see, really see what is going on around us. A friend smiles and says she’s fine, when deep down she’s hoping you’ll ask her how she really is. When you ask your son what happened at school, he replies, “Nothing.” In your heart you know he’s hurting.

May we not be deceived by the Father of Lies, but may we see clearly. Pray and ask God to help you see the world the way he sees it.

Happy Sunday! (By the way, I’m getting married in 2 weeks!!!!!)
