We look at sum1, maybe even ourselves, & we see the external clay vessel. If it doesn't look like much from the outside..It isn't always beautiful or sparkling, so we discount it. We see that person as less important than sum1 more beautiful or well known or wealthy. But we have not taken the time to fine the treasure hidden inside that person. There is a treasure in each and every one of us. If we take the time to get to know that person, & if we ask God to show us that person the way He sees them, then the clay begins to peel away & the brilliant gems begins to shine forth! May we not come the end of our lives & find out that we have thrown away a fortune in FRIENDSHIPS because the gems were hidden in bits of clay. May we see the people in our world as God sees them!!!!
This is one of my favorite poems by my friend Kristal Doss.
