Romans 5:8

"But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."

I went to one of my favorite convience stores last week to fill up my plastic lawnmower gas container. While I was waiting to pay, I noticed a guy in front of me with no shirt and no shoes on. All he had on was a pair of blue jeans and an old hat. Oh, he also had a huge skull/pirate tattoo on his back. He was your classic redneck. Obviously the store owner didn't have a problem with the guy coming into his store half naked but I did. So after I left the store, I started pondering what I just saw and it hit me......God loves that guy no matter what he looks like or wears just as much as he does me. God also sent Jesus to die for that guy as well as me. So at the end of the day God, just like the store owner, has no problem with the concept of "No shirt No Shoes No Problem." Think about that this week.
