The big picture

Details, details, everyone wants details...teachers want details in essays, experiments; bla bla, CAT lecturers want specifics in students reports and write-ups; bosses want details in reports and procedures... details details...

Let's just do an experiment here. What do you see below??


Exactly, a tiny black speck (dot). My.. you do have good eyes for details. It is good and commendable to have such good 'eyes' for details, however small it may be but sometime when we are so FOCUSED on the small minute details that we often miss the big picture.

I used to liken the white space to a person's life, white: blameless and pure. BUT whenever one commits a sin, a stain appears in his life, in this case a black dot. Some times we are so carried away by focusing on the wrong object and missed the whole point. Which is more important the person's life or the one sin? Sad to say, ppl always tend to remember the WRONG things that others did.

However, I am glad and thankful that Our Heavenly Father remembers all the RIGHT things that we do. All our wrongs, He will remove as He hath promised provided that As long as we confess our wrongs to Him, He will forgive us.

I John 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just, and will forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

(Isaiah 1:18 KJVR) Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.


Be glad and thankful that in Our Lord's eyes , we shall be white as snow.
