Thought to Ponder: grace to keep from becoming squint-eyed,

Thought to Ponder: God, give us the grace to keep from becoming squint-eyed, cranky Christians. Amen.
— Charles R. Swindoll

Ask God. Trust God. We are completely dependent on Him for eternal life, for forgiveness, for character, for security. His light in our lives gives us a growing disgust for things that merely satisfy the flesh. It shows us the importance of character, the incredible change that can come by standing alone on the things of God. He alone can give us grace and winsomeness and keep us from becoming squint-eyed, cranky Christians. It is His working in our lives that uses us even in the harems of life to make a difference and to model a charm and a beauty, a dignity and an elegance that cannot help but cause people’s attention to be drawn to Him and His power. Ask. Trust.
