God Sees Everything
These words from my child's artwork foreshadowed today. I did something for no reason other than obedience to God. I thought the outcome would be different. I delayed my obedience because logically, it didn't make sense. Like, umm... am I even supposed to do this? Sometimes it's hard to know what to do at any given moment, especially when a man prefaces it with "I'm not trying to manipulate you, but..."
When I did it anyway, I heard a story about how a child's life could be changed and how I unknowingly had already helped to change someone else's life. Had I disobeyed, I wouldn't have heard that. It was super uncomfortable but vital.
Next, I awkwardly asked a couple if they were being targeted for human trafficking because their children's names were on their vehicle, and they had an orange tag on their car. They stated how they had been to a game earlier, and that is what they put on the paid vehicles. My discernment radar went off but not about the intended topic.
#RepentAndSeekHim
Later, I read about a conman who had married 3 different women (unknowingly to the women but eventually found out). First thought: sounds like a lot of work! Haha. Most of the commentary was critical or racist of these women-like how could they not know? Easily. They saw the best in another human. They saw all the good and overlooked the flaws. They saw the potential. They went with how they felt. This doesn't make them foolish or naive. It doesn't make them stupid to want to see good in another human. They stated in the commentary how the man had piercingly blue eyes, and one commented that they were just contacts.
When we try to see things with our own eyes, we see what we want to see, we see the appeal of blue contacts, our vision can be blurry, deceptive, restricted or limited, even with a bright orange tag! God sees ALL while we see only in part (1 Cor 13:9). But what will the future look like when we are known fully by God and know Him fully?
