(Jesus continued) “And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black.” Matthew 5:36
Lord how this verse reminds us what little control we have over the houses (our bodies) that we live in. You certainly remind all of us that You are the one that is in control. Oh we have products today that can change the color of our hair but You are the master of our fate. This verse certainly strikes home for me because I was in the 5th grade when the person sitting behind me announced to everyone by pulling a long white hair out of my curly beautiful auburn hair – ‘ooooooo a gray hair.’ Of course I was embarrassed – humiliated – as the whole class laughed. Yes, Lord we are reminded that You are totally in control of our lives.
Lord, thank You for loving us with Your unconditional love and wanting the very best for each of our lives.
Oh how we thank You and praise You.
Thank You Lord.
