Your ridiculous checklist.
Certain necessities are common in looking for that special someone and in no way is it a bad thing. In fact, it's great to know what you want in a person. IN a person. Why is it that nowadays majority of those on this quest for an interpersonal connection bring along a laundry list of specifics pertaining to somebody's shell? How can you look at a person and believe you've taken from their physical appearance enough information about who they are? Their outer casing barely grazes the precipice of their inner workings, those internal thoughts and emotions which contain the very essence of a human. You can never even begin to understand who a person is from simple observations which can be found in a photograph. The thousands of words encased within that photo can be as deceiving as the lighting, the angle and the subject captured. And just like in a photo, those around you, who you deem fit because of their appearance, may take advantage of your most vulnerable sense by blinding you from the fact that they do not match up to the most important things you forgot to add to your ridiculous checklist.
Are you AWARE? If you are like most people, you may think that you are. Though you may be in the regular habit of reading news on-line, watch what is happening on TV – daily read a newspaper and generally are up on what is happening in the world, the country and your community you certainly are well INFORMED, but according to the words of Jesus you are not AWARE.
The definition of 'Aware' is to warn, admonish, heed, (or) watch out. If that is the case, then watch out and warn about what?? Today’s scripture is a warning about the blindness that many have, namely that without being healed from sin and the curse of death, they will be lost in an eternity caused by their blinders of choice.
The Bible says that “Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God” (Romans 10:17) but in order for Faith to take root, you must take off your blinders, open your ears, sharpen the mind, and be receptive in the heart.
Are you 'AWARE?' If not, turn back from your regular habits! Look instead at the Word of God and SEE what is real and good and pure that God is promising you in His assurance of eternal life and starting seeing what really is important.
God Bless Your Day Jesus Loves You
