Day of Praise

Sat, 10/14/17, "Day of Praise" 

"But even the hairs of your head are all numbered." - Matthew 10:30 

Seriously? 

So, God knows every hair on my head? 

Even the two-inch-long Frankenstein hair on my right eyebrow that apparently decided to pop out one Sunday not long ago? 

Man alive, everybody who received Holy Communion from me during worship and everybody who greeted me after worship must've been thinking, "Man, Pastor Chris, don't you ever look in the mirror? Dude, you need to trim your eyebrows. You look like Frankenstein." 

But nobody said that. 

And apparently God knew about the monster hair because God promises that "even the hairs of your head are all numbered." (Matthew 10:30) And even knowing how stupid I looked, he still loves me. 

And God still loves you, even though a wild hair or something crazy is going to make you look stupid today. 

I mean it's Saturday. And y'all are always telling me how much you love Saturdays because something surprising always seems to happen. To you. Or with a family member. Or with a game. Or at the store. 

Just remember that God already knows about it. And he loves you. And he loves them. So instead of getting bent out of shape, we can do what a young couple and I talked about not long ago -- we can just smile and laugh about it and not let it steal our joy. 

So, have a great Saturday! 

And remember, "Even the hairs of your head are all numbered." (Matthew 10:30

Praise God!
