Pumpkin prices seem to be pretty reasonable this season:
Big pumpkins
Tiny pumpkins
Huge pumpkins
Even white pumpkins
But if you want a bumpy pumpkin with warts, it will cost you more!
I smiled as I walked past a pumpkin display and realized the Biblical lesson found here. You see, cut any of those pumpkins/gourds open and inside you will find the essentials for life in unique proportions: flesh, pulp, seeds and of course, the gooey, stringy guts/goop/slime/plain old yucky stuff called fibrous strands. We are so much more than what is seen on the outside; it’s what’s on the inside that matters!
SO why do we pay more for looks?
(I’m not just talking about pumpkins here…)
“People look at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart.”
I Samuel 16:7
