Are you different

Are you different? Yes, God made us. God made the inside and the outside of each of us. And each of us so much different that the next.  No one has the same finger prints, there are distinctions within the voice vibrations and eye patterns can also be distinguished among people.

And, then we remain different. Some are old, while others are young. We have races of different color and languages from hundreds of countries. Some people are poor while others are quite rich and well off. People are of different sizes, in height and girth. You may be right handed, while I am fortunate to be left handed, but in my right mind. 

And for most of us, we recognize all these differences among all of God’s people. But, why is it then that we quite often judge these very same people because of how they look, dress, cleanliness, grammar and the list goes on.

There is the old adage, unless you’ve walked a mile in my shoes, don’t judge me.

This is what makes God so perfect, he doesn’t even look or care how we differ from others. He loves us in spite of all of our short comings, our looks, our cleanliness, whether we are fat or skinny.  No, God looks into our hearts and a clean heart makes a dwelling place for Jesus. That is why it is so important to keep our heart spiritually in tune with God.

Love me as I have loved you, God tells us, and we must follow God’s example and look at the heart of a person, the inside. Deep inside that heart we will see the face of God.
