From The Inside Out

We must first and foremost always love God and put him first in our lives.  In Genesis 2:18, God told Adam that He was going to bring a suitable helper for him which we know was eve.  There were times in my life, when I would wonder when God was going to bring the woman that He had for me into my life.  I would even sometimes wonder if I would even find her.  Not because of the person that I was on or type of person that I was on the inside,  but because of the way I looked on the outside.  Because for the most part people look at the outside appearance.  The Bible tells us that man looks at the outside appearance, but God looks at the heart. (1 Samuel 16:7) I am not excluding myself from that category whatsoever we all do it, but do we say we like someone because of what they look like, before we truly get to know them?   There were times in my life, when I would wonder if a girl would truly get to know me and not just judge me because of what I looked like on the outside.  ( That truly wasn't just for the girls that was truly for anyone).  God is starting to break me of that and not allowing me to worry about what people think of me.  Whenever you look in the mirror, do not worry about what you look like on the outside, because sooner or later, we will get old, we will get winkles, we will start to fall apart.   Are any of us perfect by no means, but God wants to mold and shape us into his image.  I want to look at who God brings into my life from the inside out, and for who she has in her heart, and I want her to do the same in me.  For those of you that read this, I want you to do the same for those that you meet, however you meet them, and remember that those that don't look perfect on the outside may have Christ living inside of them.  When we put God first, and ask God to show us who it is that He has for us, thats the only thing that counts.
