I'm still thinking about God crowning His human creatures with glory and honor. When other people do annoying things, when I annoy myself, I sometimes lose sight of the crown of glory.
What would happen today if, in the middle of a heated discussion, when I'm feeling particularly frustrated, I could see the crown on the other person's head? What if I could feel the touch of the crown on my own head when I revert to old practiced, self-destructive habits? When a little child throws a tantrum, can we see the crown? When a spouse ignores us and doesn't engage, can we touch our crown and remember whose we are?
What kind of difference could it make today to watch for the crowns all around us? To live under the crown and treat ourselves and others with God-honor? I mean, what could it hurt? It absolutely couldn't make things worse, could it?
Let's try it...share your experiences with me, will you?
