Paige and I are in Charleston, SC chilling out for a couple of days and as we where walking around we saw a beautiful fountain. As we were looking around we saw the sign that you see in the picture and I began to laugh to myself. Do you really have to post a sign at a fountain saying that there is no life guard on duty? Can you just assume that be the case?
Then I had this thought hit me. In the church today we assume too many things. We assume as we recite old Bible stories that the people sitting on the pews know what we are talking about. We assume that they learned that story in Sunday School like you did. We assume that they people that walk through the doors of our church knows about the love of God, the grace of God, and everything in between.
We have the tendency see life from our perspective and our perspective alone. Sometime we struggle seeing it through someone else's eyes. Too many time because of the inability to see life through someone else's eyes we assume things that we should not. I want to challenge us this week to try not to assume anything and see life through someone else's eyes.
