Christians and Pumpkins?

 

Being a Christian is like being a pumpkin.

God picks you from the patch and brings you in. John 15:16

Then washes all the dirt off you  2 Corthianians. 5:17

He opens you up and scoops out all of the yucky stuff. He removes the seeds of doubt, hate, greed, etc. Romans 6:6

Then he carves you a new smiling face. Psalm 71:23

And he puts a light inside you for all of the world to see. Mathew 5:16

Well, I guess this little poem gives new meaning to Christians and pumpkins alike. And while I do not actually identify myself as a pumpkin, I do identify as being a Christian. 

It is a cute little poem that I found on Pinterest and I wanted to share it with you. 

But with it, it is true. God does pick us out, takes us in, cleans off the dirt, and scoops out the crud.

And then he puts a light in us that the whole world can see. (Whether they want to or not, I would add.}

So while maybe you don't identify yourself as a pumpkin either, if you are a Christian, you can identify with what God did for you!

Thanks for coming by today, Friends. Have a blessed day!
