BE COLOR BLESSED, NOT COLOR BLIND
* Some people say, "When I look at people, I don't see their race.
* I don't see their color." There's a word for that: liar!
* Nobody is colorblind when it comes to race.
* And God doesn't want you to be colorblind.
* He wants you to be color blessed.
* God loves color.
* Just take a look outside!
* Everything he makes is in color, like sunsets and flowers.
* Look at all the different people around the world.
* God loves color!
* The way he created you demonstrates this.
* We need to learn to see all people the way God sees them.
* The Bible says, "The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looksat the heart" (1 Samuel 16:7 NIV).
* Quite frankly, that's a tall order for most of us.
* It's not natural to look at the inside before the outside.
* We're trained to make snap judgments based on outward appearance.
* Some people you trust just by looking at them, others you don't.
* Books are judged by their covers.
* Homes are judged by their curb appeal.
* People are judged by how they look, dress, and talk.
* So ask God to help you start seeing people the way he sees them.
* Look at their heart, not their skin.
* It's one of the first steps toward overcoming prejudice in your life — and in the world around you.
PRAYER
Father God, help me to start seeing people the way You see them, Look at their heart, not their skin. Thank You, Lord. I am color blessed.
