Plain jane/claire...



Let them praise his name in dance;
strike up the band and make great music!
And why? Because God delights in his people,
festoons plain folk with salvation garlands! -Psalm149: 3-4


Do you ever have ordinary days, days when you feel,well, blah... You think you are getting somewhere with an issue or struggle, and it turns out, its like 2 steps forward 3 back, well that's what it feels like....

or just a day of routine, you know that day was for God but you cant shake of that feeling of 'where was my contribution' ... actually forget a day, maybe a week..

or just who you are, annoys you, you try giving your annoying habits to God, so you can move forward and get into the holy glow that is just around the corner, but no matter how hard you try, it just ain't happening, the little annoyances, know how to niggle back into your persona.. and it really makes you think, I will never be the glowing disciple of God I can be... I am just a plain Jane with no outstanding qualities for God

any of this apply to you, nah just me then......

I was reading the scripture above this morning, and it really hit me... those people who feel like another plain Jane's and struggle with issues and never really make the grade into the inner circle's of elite christian crew,. God delights over those people, people who don't see what God sees in them...and actually raves over them, in fact he has a party and makes sure they are decorated with his colourful blessings..

how rocking is that....

so maybe you are having a grey day/week/month/year... but God sees you and sees a person who is worthy of colourful decoration... a salvation garland...you are the apple of his eye... gorgeous and green.. a reason for a party....
