flip the coin

Dear  Reader

so i was at church today and i  had this thought about  heads and tails. lets use  pennies as our illustration shall we.
    OK  so  tales makes  me think of  shame  hidden identity. fear of failure being forgotten. all the  junk in the  trunk.  then  you  flip and you see  another side  of things.  there is a head  or face. so imagine if you will. we  find  pennies on the ground all the  time they are muddy and  dirty. its hard to find the face. we often  see  pennies as  inconvenient.  we find them  annoying   most people have a  little jar for pennies.  so what happens is this we keep adding more pennies  most of them  sticky and muddy.  people  stop caring about these  pennies. they  throw them away before  you see the full worth.
 so imagine if you will if we were to shine and  wash  these pennies we would be drawn to them  right. OK so people are like  the dirty pennies covered in sin then when we give our lives our  hearts to Jesus we  become clean. we are all ugly  in sin.  but its through Christ that we have an identity. we don't have to  be covered in guilt  covered in shame  covered in failure etc you get the point fill in the blanks  what  are your  hidden  sins what is it that you wear instead of Gods  infinite love. you  see when we  let God truly work on us we  become new and slowly that scum becomes pure. but it is a choice. maybe you know God and maybe you don't.  maybe you are covered from head to toe in junk. hurts pains  and insecurities. today  tonight this morning where ever you are. take some time to examine your heart. what do you  need to take to the  cross to become pure  again to become the most beautiful face. you  don't have to run you don't have to hide. just come to God let him bring you back to  life let him  in let him heal everything. cause he is more then able in fact he wants to be the one you run to when you are  hurt  when you are  lost.  just think about how much god  loves you. you are  worth it you are  most  beautiful there is nothing at all wrong with you. come to the cross and lay your burdens down.its  never too late to come  before  God
