A Fruity Pebble in a World of Cheerios

Have you noticed that you can find wonderful inspiration on Facebook? Today a friend posted in her status that she was a Fruit Loop in a bowl of cheerios and this got me thinking...  Cheerios aren't bad - in fact they are very good for you but Fruit Loops are more colorful and much tastier! Honestly I liked the thought of choosing to be identified as something out of the ordinary like the Horse of Another Color in The Wizard of Oz. Her comparison of herself got me to thinking - what kind of cereal am I?? Odd I know but well that's how my mind works.


After much thought I decided that Fruity Pebbles work best for me. Not only are they colorful, they make some serious noise (kinda like my joints LOL). Fruity Pebbles aren't made of wheat like most cereals but of rice which is awesome! You see, I have a low tolerance to wheat products and as a child spent years not being able to eat any wheat! Fruity Pebbles were one of the "treats" that I could have because well they are different. They're based upon a classic cartoon - how FUN is that?! All you have to do is look at them and you smile.


All kidding aside, God created each of us in HIS own image and yet we are each differently and wonderfully made. In all of the history of Earth there is only one you, and if you had been the only person ever born after the fall of Adam and Eve Messiah Christ would have still come to Earth to live as a human and sacrifice Himself so that you could be ransomed. That's just how much God loves each one of us individuals He created.
I am so happy that God made me a Fruity Pebble in a world of Cheerios.
I am unique, full of color and a bit noisy at times.
To some I may seem a bit crazy but Jesus thought I was worth dying for!
Thank you Lord God Almighty for your gift of my Blessed Redeemer Jesus Christ!

God bless and sweet dreams!

PS:
In case you think that Fruity Pebbles are a bit out there as a reference for talking about God, take a look as HIS fruity pebbles! They are gravel and dust particles from Mars and just like me they were made by an infinatly creative God!! As He said to Job; "Were you there when I laid the foundations of the Earth?" I know I wasn't and wouldn't even begin to limit His all encompassing power!
