See the "diamonds" in ppl, not the rotten apple in them...

from nicole's blog.. we must keep reminding ourselves that we are who we are today, not because we're good, not because we're talented, not because we're worthy of it, but because God first saw the potential in us, and because God first believed in us. when we make mistakes, God could have easily removed us from where we're standing now, He could have easily made us fall from our pride, our stupidity, our unrighteousness. but He didn't, because He continued to see the potential in us. therefore, let us not look at others with a critical and judgmental attitude, but let us see others as giant boulders of carbon, waiting for someone to see the 'diamond' in them. be that 'someone' today.
