If you live in America, you know the feeling of showing up late to school (probably)
Everyone looks at you funny and you sit down somewhere random before anyone sees you awkwardly looking around
You wonder how others don't get as nervous when there are new seats assigned, how everything's different
You finally take your seat and rest there only to be told "Dude, I was saving the seat"
You fidget yet still remain because you don't want to risk getting up again.
At the surface, it may seem like what happens to me when I arrive at school (as I'm nearly always late), however, it could be used as a metaphor for life
We as people always seem like eyes are staring at us, even when nobody really notices anything involving us or gives what we do no bother
We tend to judge each other falsely when we feel attacked
And we tend to feel alone even when people are surrounding us.
So where's the encouragement here?
Don't care what others say about you, only what God says. They don't know you. They know what you do, not YOU, but God does.
