Black and White

God sees things in Black and White. We like to add in 'grey areas' to justify our actions....but really, God sees right through that.

In every circumstance, there is a right and there is a wrong. We look for the 'grey' because it's easier to excuse behaviours (that we ourselves are guilty of) rather than admit to wrongdoing.

How does one reconcile a God of Black and White as loving when we want to see grey?

The love part comes with His forgiveness. He turns the Black in our lives to White with His light of Hope. In order to reach that transforming light, we first need to rid ourselves of the grey to see the Black in our lives....then repent to open up to the light.


Are you wondering what made me get so hooked on this theme? Well, I've been taking black and white pictures of my kids, of course!
