Did ya notice? Did ya? DID YA?!

I think it's intriguing how much we want to align ourselves with the winners/good looking/popular.  I've recently been noticing how deep this goes:

• If a baby is cute, you want to hold him/her.
• If a team begins to win, you go to the games.
• If you look nice, you want to be seen by someone important.
• If you notice an attractive person driving, you want them to smile/approve/notice you.
• If a friend knows someone, who once talked to someone, who was neighbors with someone, who appeared on TV once 10 years ago, well, we brag about our connection to them.  (lol)

 Ok, my point being this: we look to so many PEOPLE to give us worth/name us/validate us, when the true source of that can only come from God.  Does He work through people?  Defintiely.  Does He work through the random strangers/gorgeous/famous/etc?  Perhaps.

Basically, I know I need to check myself on where I get my "oh, so I'm awesome too" feelings.  God has already given me His love, which is more than enough! 




Will I let it be?
