I forgot......
Yesterday i was astounded by absolute beauty-a woman, covered in scarves and layers-a weary face peeping through. She was offering us all she had, and we rejected her, but there was one, one person who noticed her, felt compassion and acknowledged her trade-giving generously. Her face was stunning-instantly radiant in her thanks.
Her teeth were gold and broken, her face dirty and worn, her clothes showed hints of majestic colour, yet appeared faded and dull, her very countenance was pitiful yet by this act, this simple act of simple behaviour, saving behaviour she was transformed.
I was reminded of another-offering all she had in an alabaster jar, rejected by many yet noticed by one. The one whose eyes are ever fixed on her....i was humbled yesterday and challenged, what if more people acted as this one did, trying to follow our servant King....
What glory would we find in the dirt?
