What do you mean you Failed ??????

I suppose this teaches us a very important lesson... at the outset, these questions appeared to be no brainers, when in fact they were tricky little devils!

I wonder how often I have made assumptions, judged a book by its cover.

How many people have I simply looked over, assuming that they will be a certain way / not be a certain way?

How many potential leaders have we simply brushed over because we believed them to have little to no potential?

How many of our non-Christian mates have we simply not invited to church / life group because we assumed that they would say no?

You know what they say about the word assume hey... it makes an ass (out of) u (&) me!

May God help you to place a '10' on everyone's heads...

to see the best and not the worst of who they could be...

to see what they could be before others see...

I look forward to your comments!
