A new perspective
If you haven't guesses yet I am a hair dresser, it is my job to make you look and feel good about yourself everyday. I love love love what I do, but I have found in more recent days that I have started to judge people based on their looks. Like the type of person they are, if they are remotely attractive, if they look like they will be a big tipper or not. Ever since I started beauty school I was told to look, I mean really look at people and in a sense judge the way they look, what would I change, what can't I change and need to work around. I noticed that I began to only see the negative about people, only what would give me a challenge instead of looking at the beauty and what I can work with not agents.
When I moved back i told myself things will be different, I won't allow myself to think that way. Ha yeah right old habits die heard. And I noticed it more and I was truly appalled by what I was thinking about people. So I had a date with God and asked for a new perspective.
When is enough, enough? I got sick of how I thought about people. And I knew it was getting out of hand when I started judging the way friends looked. I know God made them in his image and I would say to myself "what were you thinking with that one?" or a like comment. Now I ask the same question but now wait for a far different answer.
I want to see people how gGod sees them, how he created them to be, and how beautiful he created them. I asked for Gods perspective. To open my eyes and them THEM. I find myself enjoying like and work so much more though Gods perspective rather then my worldly own.
So my question is who's perspective are you looking from?
