the chains of oppression

Postby logi bear » Sat Aug 14, 2010 9:16 pm

Despite the constant fight for equality, there is still so much racism, sexism, and discrimination present in our everyday lives. While this fallen world can be unfair and full of so much pain, God's arms are free from all oppression.

Gal 3:28

28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female : for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
KJV

Gal 3:28

28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female : for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
KJV

1 Sam 16:7

7 But the Lord said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for the Lord seeth not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance , but the Lord looketh on the heart.
KJV

We seem to focus to much on the outward appearance, sometimes all we can see is the way someone looks or lives. We also seem to forget that the body is just a house, a container, a temporary home for our souls. God does not see skin color, size, gender, race, or culture. Our awesome CREATOR sees only our hearts and souls.

If you feel oppressed run into His arms, because His arms are not like the world, and there are never any chains. *run*
