God is like M&Ms

God is like M&Ms. M&Ms are yummy bits of chocolate covered in some form of hard candy. There are 21 different colors of M&M. They come in original, crispy, peanut, mini, and mint(possibly others). To say the least, the candy comes in many different forms and can be implemented into numerous recipes and decoration. There are millions of purposes an M&M can serve. But one thing is true, all the forms of M&M set out to accomplish the same goal: to satisfy the taste buds of those consuming the candy. Everyone has different preferences and responds to different forms of M&Ms. Some are satisfied by originals and some by peanut. This is much like God. He presents Himself in countless ways but always sets out to accomplish the same goal. To satisfy the hole in the hearts of humans by filling it with his Spirit. Each of us may require a different presentation of God. He may be the homeless man sitting on the street or the woman we bump into on the bus. But one thing is for sure, God will reveal Himself in some way. Possibly original, or maybe with some yummy twist. Keep yours eyes out for your flavor. God's word. Melts in your heart, not on your shelf.

Series to be continued...

  1. HA! That made me laugh ... in a deep way, of course.

    I didn't know there were 21 colors of M&Ms. My favorites used to be the tan ones, but then they replaced those with blue ...
