Mini sermon by C. E. Strain It is so easy to look on someone's life and pass a simple judgment on them. You will miss your blessing by picking a certain day to sum up someone else's life or attitude or goals. When Joseph was in prison, you could look at him and say he was a prisoner. You would be right.... but you would be wrong. If you chose to pass judgment on someone, make sure it is based upon where they are going, not where they are. Those that understood that Joseph had something more than his current residence, received greater direction for their lives. Others who sat in jail with him, probably mocked Joseph saying, "your just a prisoner, too. What makes you think that your some kind of prophet?" Well by their choice, Joseph was just a prisoner,....... and so where they.......... Goliath looked upon David as just a little boy. And so he was. But David was destined to be king and Goliath was destined to be dead. If Goliath had looked upon David differently and not judged him as nothing........ Two thieves looked upon the third man on the cross with them. One saw him as just another thief, the other looked upon him as something more. Not sure at first, but willing to give him the benefit of his respect. Luke 23:38
And a superscription also was written over him in letters of Greek,
and Latin, and Hebrew, THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS. |
