While in an Einstein's Coffee shop, Houston, TX, I picked up "LIVING," a lightweight magazine with features titled Dying for a New Look, Artist Remakes a Traditional Home . . ., and Is Bariatric Surgery Right For You?
In the midst of all these "features," the article Upside Down World appeared with 1 Samuel 16:7--...the Lord doesn't see things the way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.
This particular article seemed a contradiction to the others...
The writer, Michelle Wallace, expressed that the kingdoms of the world seem to operate in contrast to the kingdom of God. Jesus said the way up is down--to be great, we wash feet; humility lifts us; God graces the humble and opposes the proud. I gazed out the window: skyscrapers, high-rise condos, specialty shops galore and wondered what God thought when he looked down on all this. Some believe God has a sense of humor. I hope he uses it often.
