I made a comment on my Twitter tonight about Kraft Macaroni and Cheese. None of that Kraft Easy Mac for me, it just tastes funny, I want the original. Don’t even try the different shaped noodles either, one time Kyle brought home some Sponge Bob Mac and Cheese, I tried one box and ended up not eating it. The rest of the boxes went to the Girl Scouts food drive.
Kyle bought this beautiful watch in Mexico, it is his Rolexo, no that isn’t a typo; he bought a copy of a Rolex watch. It still runs real good but one of the things we have learned is that when we buy something in Mexico it isn’t a real bargain if it is a copy.
How often do we try and ‘improve’ upon the original or to make a copy of an original. How often do we do that to ourselves? God created us in His own image. We were fearfully and wonderfully made and yet we spend hours and hours, a whole boat load of money and much gnashing of teeth to try and look or be like someone else. God made each one of us unique, each one of us is an original and that is what we need to celebrate our uniqueness in the Lord. We need to see ourselves as He sees us, The Original Me.
