After we accept Christ he transforms our heart to be more like his. This is one of my favorite things to experience, in my life and others. These changes are scary to some... will I still be myself, will I have the same feelings or will I like the same things? In my experience, you are such a better version of yourself that you would never look back, ever!
Last night I was having a late night snack at Waffle House with my husband. There was a father there feeding his son who was wheelchair bound. This father had obviously taken his son to the same country music concert we had been to, they were in cowboy boots and jeans (my kinda men) and having a great time. My husband and I just couldn't help but notice what a perfect picture of love this was.
Before we would have looked and quickly looked away, not knowing how to feel. But Christ has transformed our hearts, not only break for the same things, but to break for what breaks His. Now we look and take in this beautiful picture in deep admiration, respect and genuine love. What a bright light the two of them were... I felt honored to be eating in the same Waffle House :)
Love one another fiercely today... like LIONS!!!
May God give you eyes to see beauty only the heart can understand.
