The very common English idiom "don't judge a book by its cover"(common phrase)is a metaphorical phrase which means "don't determine the worth of something based on its appearance"
How many of you judge a person by it cover? Is it right? Can you judge some one's spiritual value by their cover.
Here is my opinion...Yes you should be able to judge a book by it's cover in the spiritual realm.
A person who has an amazing relationship with Christ has no choice but to put on a splendid cover. There joy seeps out and covers them. There relationship is obvious and is made known.
When you are deeply in love with someone, is it obvious to other people? I think it is, the way you smile and gush over them, how you think about them constantly and can't help but telling everyone about that special someone.
Isn't your relationship with Christ suppose to be the same way? Absolutely.
"Likewise every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit" Matthew 7:17
" Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire" Matthew 7:19
What kind of fruit do you bear? What does your facebook status say about you? How do people judge your cover?
This is what I want my cover to say about me...
A God fearing mother, a woman who is trying to raise her son for the glory of God. A woman who is trying to teach her son what a godly man looks like. A woman who doesn't give up and doesn't give in. A woman that people respect. A woman that is marked by the blood of Jesus.
I am not afraid to be the woman God has intended for me to be. Some days I fall very short of what His intentions are, some days I have my own intentions and I fail miserably.
There is one thing you need to know about me despite every ones "good intentions" I want "God's intentions" I want what He knows is best for me and I want it in His perfect timing. I am willing to wait and I am ready to go the distance.
" Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows."
James 1:17
