Beauty Is In The Eye Of The Beholder With A Twist

So these are all Christian radio show beauty is in the holder with a twist today on the Christian card I show yes beauty is in the beehive of the beholder with a twist of you ever noticed I should have that my kids are the cutest.

My grandkids are even cuter. Or at as it turns out my dog is the most outstanding beauty of his breed. I've never seen another dog that looked as good that happened to be about breed or for some strange reason, over at my 1995 Dodge Dakota is the most beautiful Dodge Dakota I've ever seen.

Further, my house stands out as a spectacular version of its design, the nicest one I've ever seen or best yet. My wife let me tell you, when you look at beautiful woman in the dictionary and pretty sure that's a picture of her got a disagree with you that when you could stare and smile.

I look in her eyes for eternity. I'm just saying. Are you saying it's your wife you yes yes in your wife's right there. The next pay.

So the interesting thing about what I just described. Is it truly is not. I'm not exaggerating. I literally see it that way I look at my grandkids. I can imagine that they could look any better.

I mean, it appears that these are facts, so no doubt there is something rigged in my brain as the other people that you got a question very a twist. If you will, where I view things through my emotions, my affections, so deep down I suspect that other things are is equally beautiful, just what you describe, but I'm not seeing the light literally so why is that, or worse, why do I have some relatives that literally can spot a strip club from miles away.

I assume you made it because they want to pray for those poor people live.

My I've seen them do it or honky-tonk it is likely that over there. I and I have another relative. I don't know how we can do it. He could find a drug dealer that I mean you could put them in another town, 400 miles away and he would find one within hours. It's just that have an uncanny ability to see things. It's an interesting thing that Jesus taught in Luke 1134 and when you read that in the King James version truly got kind of a different twist on it if you would that I had never seen before until this week.

It says the light of the body is the eye. Therefore when mine eye is single. The whole body is also full light but when mine is evil then my body is also full of darkness will see that word single appears to me to be a key to the passage but what does single vision means I started to think about and study them.

Actually, if you know me know me. I love the song of Solomon and many many many times netbook specifically in the first chapter verse 15 the Jesus character in the song of Solomon, the lover, the man is chasing after the bride, his bride, the church, he says that she has the eyes of Dupps you think about and I read a beautiful article on how Dell lives are not like humanizing that they don't believe they will have muscles that can move their eyes when they see something arise, stuck out and since those mate for life right there always seeing you know they have single vision there.

You can't get that, but also very cool. If you look in the Hebrew root word from Dove and wine are the same word which means effervescent so ever noticed that the people that you love if you look into their eyes and intoxicating. I'm just saying it just looks that way. And if you also think about this is weird to talk about the lies that does are the only animals on earth that can't get lost sleep dozen pigeons are actually the same species and as you may recall what did Noah set out with the beginner come back with an olive branch or what you do with pastor to emulate sent notes back and forth because from what I understand, you can take a dove or a pigeon 11,000 miles away and just drop it off it will find its way home. So think about that does are always an image of peace, what peace is it that you always know your way home. Why do they have eyes to see that and very cool shalom in Hebrew.

Sometimes people translated is healthy and also when that word that was translated single in the King James version is also usually translated in the NIV here are the ESV or whatever you'll see they use the word healthy, but the Greek word is hapless HA PLO US on my Greek is not very good so how to speak in any way. So I I began to really look into this word as it must be the secret to having good site and sites critical to a car person believe it's critical that everybody but the Holy Spirit something really deep into this with the twist because here's the thing.

Help us is comes from two words one of which is Alpha and the other one is a word that is PL EK oh that's the root of the word that is in Jesus used to describe single but curiously that wordplay cow is only used three times in the Bible, and each time it's the twisting or twining together at the crown of thorns so the word that makes up this word single is actually a number of things being twisted together to make one so that really set me on an interesting journey because I remembered from my previous show that I did what we talked about twisting that cause the Hebrew word for twist means gathering together it's used in Genesis 1, God gathered the waters together and is also the word weight when you wait on wings like eagles viewing and rise up on wings like eagles like Isaiah brought out so now think about this, this, this twisting together this making one out of three strands if you will have got a beautiful video.

By the way it Christian Car Guy.com.

If you look on this email. Beauties in the either the holder post I made this morning, you'll see a picture of making rope and what that looks like when you take all these things twined together and make a rope which is, again, or this help us get the idea of taking many things and making it one now consider with me a minute you're a high and that it is connected to your brain with a lot of nerves for having those nerves are fibers there there twisted together so that you can see, and if you were to look at a nerve which I got a picture it. Christian Car Guy.com of the nerves coming off your IV crisscross and there's all sorts of things are going on in your head so that you can see, but it all comes together as one image for you and interestingly we talked about the crown of thorns being twisted together.

I don't know if you've ever considered this but as Abraham was about to slay his son Isaac in Genesis right. He all of a sudden see something he hadn't seen before. Right he's about to slay Isaac and all of a sudden after God says don't strike and then all of a sudden he sees this ram and it happens to be caught in one of think, which is a twisting together of bones, so the Lamb of the ram also had a crown of thorns on his head. Now that's an interesting twist of fate, but the question that Bill brought out earlier today and I think the great question is why did Abraham see that ram until the moment he saw as obviously it must mean I didn't just show up there.

It didn't get caught there right that second ended, been there, but he didn't have eyes to see it until the Lord kinda gave him eyes to see, and so it undoubtedly was a very beautiful thing for him, as is the crown of thorns. For those who understand what Jesus did for us on the cross that without that crown of thorns right I would still be stuck in my sin I would have no vision or no ability to see the things that God is showing me on this whole thing. Now you may wonder, Robbie. Where's all this, here's where I think the application is for me anyway, is that if you have eyes to see it. All these things are twisting together sorta like the Romans 828 hi all things come together for those who are called according to his purpose.

If you as eyes to see it so I'm hoping you're calling to say and share his Wendy's UC something that all of a sudden showed up that maybe hadn't seen before. Like Abraham and all my goodness it was almost holy. It was unbelievable but you were given eyes to see if 866-34-TRUTH 87884 got a lot more with the twist today and so you know this is you heard through our introduction work searching for those stories today were you saw God gave you eyes to see something that you had not seen before. And all of a sudden you realize that all my goodness like Abraham, he has provided your ram in the thicket and you saw the twist and you realize that things are all coming together. Romans 828 for you know those who love the Lord and are called according to his purpose. So interestingly, at this point in my life. My father is in hospice care and you've heard me talk about it until you in a month ago. You did the show for me because he'd gotten really sick and he's at the point now. Unfortunately, he hasn't gotten out of bed or even set up in about three weeks and he no longer can take in food and in hospice is inerrant and in literally almost any day and I see all this suffering and I am trying to see that light up enough of what's really going on in. And honestly, my wife really struggling really struggling with losing, but I almost think that the suffering as I see it is a way for us to see how much better heaven is than what he is experiencing now and you know it actually looking forward to his home rather than watch him suffer in bed. Just this morning.

You know I know he was grimacing in pain and you know you you see that so is describing that story to my friend Bill. Bill shared something where you got a chance to see and I would love for you to share that story of your own father and and how God let you see something else that my father had melanoma and they said to them that you've got six months to live, and he had three years and he had one year that was just really great when you that was barely great than the last year was just absolutely awful.

This was a guy that played football for Nadine. He played football for East Carolina real tough but when it got to the point where somebody else was having to take care of all the things you gotta take care of the bedridden person understand his personality changed in one of the most difficult parts of my life was my mother basically said that it was enough dealing with him. She didn't need anybody else around the house.

I was not welcome to come rather rather long drive to get there and I really really zapped me and blotted different ways and I had a lot of anger and frustration in sorrow and many years later I was elder church and I that thing I really struggled with the most be an elder was going into the hospital and trying to forget when to leave you nay if you've ever visited somebody you really don't know that well in the hospital that so I told God that morning. This days yours. You just tell me what I got all these things I really need to be do but to put you first that I don't know how to get all this stuff done and I pull into Forsyth hospital you can park with a 30 minute wait, that force our walk at Forsyth so I pull in and I see this perfect parking spot right in the front and the three cars in front of me and I'm praying and I'm thinking I should get a lift and just go park in the very back.

Is this where I'm an in-depth anyway. But the first car passes this perfect parking spot so I hid that way. The second car passes and I get the perfect parking spot and I walk in and I go to the front desk said these are the four people I need to come see nice it will get three of these people checked out last night that I declare fight with a ticked at it. A good way and I went up to talk to this. One member that I don't think I'd ever met before. She had been ambulatory for a long time in the for diabetes had take part often. I went up to see year and we pray and about the time I was thinking how long do I stay her family came in and I said, yet this is an answered prayer, because that's just the perfect time to hit Annette my daughter had a best friend. His father was going to cancer and he had a golf ball size growth in his he had and they would zap it like a microwave that had initiated with a call to Halo and I just decided I was going to get in and introduce myself and I ended up in a part of the hospital you not even supposed to be able to Gideon unless your your family and I'm sitting there and I met one of my best friends ever. Brian was there and we started talking and we had all the whispering commandments and O'Brien ended up being on your best friends. One of my best friend. We had just a wonderful time that I started coming back and seeing him daily.

It yeah I spray it is one of the first people use the first personality Christ and we just hit it off. EE would have convulsions like a Charlie horse throughout the entire body and yet being a caregiver can just be said to his wife was just a rock but have and it did did try to take care him and said I would spend 34 days a week in a couple hours a day with them and then once a week, I'd spend the night so his wife could sorta recharge and free year.

I got to do help take care of Brian and I realized through that process that that was God helping me deal with the fact that I wasn't able.

I wasn't allowed. I wasn't permitted to deal my father go through with the he went through yet. A lot of times in my jail ministry. I will tell the guys that I really think that one of the lessons Jesus tries to teach us is if were open to do what God tells us to do that are hearing is so much better then if were not going to do what God tells us to do. It is not that God's not talking to us. It's that if were not willing to do it. We don't tune into that wavelength and I tell them the story about my son who I could yell downstairs and say Matthew did you take the trash out Nancy's head with just Bob around, I'd say.

Matthew did you take that yeah and it's like he just could not hear me and I could close the door and ask my wife.

Did you get that chocolate ice cream that Matthew likes at his hearing when it comes to chocolate ice cream is astronomically better than his hearing when it comes to taking the trash, but I think that's the basic principle but Jesus did when he sees you don't get because you know that and what are you looking for and so we would love your story for all the sudden you are given the highest see baby ears to hear, 866-34-TRUTH 87884. Would love to hear your story. 866-34-TRUTH yes I with a twist on the Christian front buttons that that stuff together. Bill, I really do beauty is in the eye of the beholder with a twist. If you go to Christian Car Guy.com. I really have what I think it is a wonderful picture because as a woman holding all these bees and you may know that you know when your home bees you got beauty in your and then there's a dove for the crown of thorns you know where this is just it's it's it's sleeping I wrote out all that the Bible verses and stuff that I put together to try to take you where God took me this week.

As far as this topic but you know when you get down to it, what were looking for.

We often find and in II I'm sad to say is that Christian car guy you know I get a chance to talk to Jesus labor love applicants in a weekly, it may serve folks that are in other cars broken down in their need help and I appreciate the chance to help and pray with him, all those things and get all that's Jesus labor love it. Christian Car Guy.com but often I hear the women go on and on about how this person ripped them off, and that person ripped them off in this person. It seemed like everybody that they ever talk to on car repair ripped them off and so I'm not surprised that the next one that they go to guess what they're looking for this and I am I think about myself .1 fingers like him .5 back by the way, if I go to outback and I'm sitting there waiting on the table with my wife. You know, and I watch the video hostess, you know, I'm not thinking I'm looking for a beautiful person write down looking at something it's aggravating me and I keep getting more and more aggravated because I think we do not expect to be seated right away. Do you do we have but I was think about it you know my my daughter really calls me to in a daddy, why are you getting so anxious right should she say she not nearly as hungry as you are rubbing. But if I was that young ladies mother I would see this completely different like how she's trying to reason through the state in in on Sam is that wow I never met a mere mortal.

And I wish God would not. I pray God would give me more eyes to see that these people are in their own way. You know walking through life trying to get it done. And so when you know to get to the insurance subject has read Bill mix non-Christian and here she needs to carry a Snickers bar with it at all. By the way, I'm still waiting on the story. Yeah, I know you got a story heard Bill story. Mine I got more. We would love to hear yours 866-34-TRUTH 87884 when God gave you eyes to see something like the ram in the thicket and all the sudden oh my goodness it appeared. You know, and it just blew you went so I went to think about this with Bill and me that when you go out to get insurance car insurance is your mindset. G.I. need to figure out the best way I can protect my investment in all the different ways that can happen or is your mindset what you're looking for is the absolute lowest premium so you can save 15% in the current insurance it out what what's what you're really looking to accomplish.

And if I am out there trying to find the absolute best price I may get that, but I may not be looking for the right thing and so you know if this is a matter of prayer in a matter of asking God to give you eyes to see what we could be looking for right now will you eat, you gotta understand it, especially when it comes to insurance sheets been just a little bit more money and get 20 times more coverage and then there are lots of things that you cannot ensure that could cost you a great deal when you call up and say I want the very cheapest price I can then you can end up with a real mess on your hands and the concept is in insurance there some things that will financially cripple you and if you can take just a little bit of money that you can plan each month. You trade. That little bit of money you plan each month so that you don't have some huge problem that will just deadly upset your entire financial card and with loss that with all these one 800 numbers and every time you turn on the TV every every set of 12 commercials between has a video call us and let us save you money and you if you listen to it properly.

If you did it right.

Since everybody can save you $350 when you call them yet. Just by changing insurance six times you could have entire retirement plan, but this is not how it works, what it means is that where Jackie writes up a whole lot about two months we find out about that ticket with that accident that we didn't calculate to begin with, but we snickered DN when you call you. You must be hungry for the universe a second time you mention Snickers that is snickered about the fact that I sense that I don't even like snickered like that commercial people change from the yeah and and it's amazing think as I think that obviously you know some things change in our inner outlook and all of a sudden her attitude changes in her eyes change what we see is actually quite different than what we might see if if we are not out you know I'm telling you before the shower. I'll never ever forget one day I was selling cars in Charlotte when I was in my late 20s and it was called to man up and we we were trained early on. You never want to wait on two men together because one guys are going to try to show off to the other guy and this won't go good for you because you know a man and a woman coming there. Probably a bicarbonate of two men are coming in this good solicit to man up and I'm going out there to wait on and maybe it was my unit when I knew I was going out there waiting on it to man up that this may not good by the way I should. I should just jump in their used-car slang without explaining you as you return. Wouldn't rubbing it out when a car salesman goes to wait on a customer, they refer to them as a not because it made you get up your city biting your business and you went so for whatever reason when I got the car business for me on 40 years ago of a customer album lot was considered about them so you go out there to man up would be then somebody but you go to wait on that was two men so we I'm on my way out there and these guys now understand if you never met me that I'm 6'5" and I'm not light so I'm up about 250 pounds. I don't think I've ever been referred to as little by many people but as I walked out there to this to man up there that comment to me was one of the guises all here comes a little salesman he's gonna ask if he can help us. They meant that in a really sweet and loving unless you actually arrive at and what those guys don't know as I could not remember a single customer. I waited on the entire time I worked at Crown Oldsmobile except that they made such an impression on my little mind you know that that felt like.

How could they just disrespect me like I mean I was just going out there to help them and why would they do that well you know they had whatever experience in the past and now they have this attitude as they went into and they had eyes to see what they were going to know what that what they wanted to find out what if I knew my son worked at the dealership, or I knew that somebody that was God's son. Better yet, worked at that dealership and I was gonna walk in or when I was going to get services the same kind of thing you know if you look for the image of God you can you can begin to see it and that's what Abraham saw him. I think it I wonder if you said gentlemen it it evidently I don't look like I know is much as I believe I do I can find you older, more experienced person to talk to if you'd prefer you mother put them in their place, they might've been stuck find something instead at that.

I would've gotten a negative in LA make money with you. Actually, I'm amazed I didn't get fired.

What I actually I couldn't.

I could quote on the radio without access at that and maybe that's the reason that stuck in my mind. I did not take that statement well and in our test it was. It was the way I was being treated disrespected by, however, that list probably a dozen or a dozen other things going on in your life that dated but here's the here's the part that's beautiful to me is that sometimes God gives his eyes to see things that are unbelievable and and kind of one of the most beautiful things I ever saw was one night in prayer and I told the story a lot but I think it's so applicable to one night I was praying about something. I couldn't even tell you what it was, businesslike, and like the dam a lot and remember much else of the Lamb displaying and all of a sudden God showed up and when he did he was so it was like I'm a man of unclean lips. It just scared there was something about his presence. That night unlike any other night that I never prayed that absolutely terrified me to the point where I was like down on my knees, saying, holy, holy, holy. Now I'm I'm not saying I didn't want to see him. What I'm saying is it just was terrifying to know what happened to the rest of that story will hear only compact but I'm still dying to hear your stories, 86634878840 is in the eye guys show. We would love to hear your story where you got to see something that just knew was if your eyes to see it when you just never knew it was there so we would love to hear that 866-34-TRUTH 8788, forcing him to call him and share 866-34-TRUTH again. All this information in the podcasts Jesus, labor, love, and I should say Christian Car Guy theater podcasts are all Christian card I had Tom crushed Christian card guide.com and unfortunately we were unable to get Christian Car Guy theater episode done in the month of February.

Because honestly, I've been so busy with my dad. I didn't have time to write it, so hopefully will get that done in March. I apologize for.

People are waiting for the next installment of that particular series, which I love to do. We love to do. It's at the podcasts page Christian Car Guy.com now only laughter here, Robert. I was praying, praying, praying, and I was you know God showed up and literally just it was terrifying to me and he said Mrs. Jesus clearly to me was and he said Robbie what you want and I was so overwhelmed that his presence this particular time in the course like abetting Jesus's presence many times, difficult times is overwhelming. And when he said it, I just went glib like you know you're talking to a girl in middle school like Bob Bob Bob.

I messed it up I want to serve you and I was very glad that I said that and when I said it. He said do you and he didn't say it sarcastically, but he said it in a way like do you and you and Bill talk about the ears to hear and when he said that immediately my eyes started to see things that blew my mind like my life was flashing before me and they were all things that he had asked me to do that I had failed to do and they were all easy things to do like I was posted call and asked Bill to go to lunch are supposed to meet Frank family career. I was posted right so and so a Y and I called my mom. It was all person-to-person things that were all just really simple.

Not like you had to go save the world or lead 20 people to come with just simple stuff like that and I was so blown away by how easy it all appeared to be that I written I got up and started writing it all down because it was come through my mind so fast, all as post-call this guy was supposed to do that and all these people that I was posted to and stay in touch with. It was absolutely amazing and it was a beautiful picture.

Repentance gives is really excited that I can still do this stuff because he was putting it on my mom and so I went and got back in the bed after I've read now all these things and I'd seen in a bit of time and passed by, and then all of a sudden I started to see with my own lives. His glory and I don't even know how to describe it other than that, is this unbelievably bright like your eyes were meant to see this and when I started to see it's something welled up inside of me like nothing I've ever felt my entire life and it was like Juergen see his face jerking to see his face and I was just desperate to see his face. I was I was and I walk my wife up literally, I'd like to make working to see your face. It's she can ruin the moment.

For me, like, are you out of your mind is what Jesus is here, but a sea of faith right now you see what is what I saw was completely real to me and then as I laid back down after that moment all the sudden he kinda let me know that it was a rhetorical question.

Originally, Robbie, what do you want and the answer was, I want to see your face. I didn't know I wanted to see his face but I can assure you. I've known ever since then and I think it's inside each and every one of us that we are desperate to see he Jesus's face and we were meant to see it in our eyes were designed to see it, but all my if you can only see it, we have Don is in Snohomish. Don good morning, the current I can never say it's no Snohomish you know how exactly wonderful anyway. My father let die and I think how and little culinary came in and entered being daddy now and now he died. She says well do we want to get him in today. I am atheist and you back no between us we lead.

My dad said that Lori and he captivated my dad and I had a good meal eight and Kayla after my brother told his method that my bandit already passed away so he wouldn't have to bring it out so I had my and he gave the eyes to see the right to life over to the Lord three days before Christmas day after Christmas and it with the Lord while you know that those are precious days to hunting.

When I walked out that nursing home at about 3 feet off the that is just beautiful. That was what the eye was hoping somebody would call me to make my day like today, Don. So I am so grateful that you're up early there in Washington in and sharing that with us. I am hearing you musically morning and night. I think Gabi daddy probably died, but I know it's been on and it is dangling and letting in vibrant elements that are not there. I will tell you one really cool thing this morning Don as I wanted to say goodbye to him. He knew EC said son I really want God to be with you in your broadcasts and they said I want to know the Holy Spirit is helping your son. I have a son who also listening. Robbie and my father doesn't talk you know he's he's definitely a believer but is not like him to speak of God or the Holy Spirit. That time of the morning or whatever.

So I was really, really touched it in on this morning. He had that that mess and he was in a lot of pain. He was grimacing in pain as I left in but he wanted to share that with me and I thought and hopefully wet.

That thing… Or wait. We had a celebration of life. Writing three years ago when all the family managed to get their line and it is beautiful babe, but her dad into that room that had been they turned it into elastic type and can Canada and it was just a glorious celebration of life and she lives with it enough.

Then the end of the month since our only 50 in unexpected barrier airline kids now I'm really that's beyond thought but undoubtedly God gave you some sight to see things and am so grateful your courage to call in today ensure that you have bless you and have left though. I like that I mean those are real that I mean who couldn't so I appreciate Yvonne very much God bless you, thank you, Bill, give you the last word. Since you even right now over there like you got notes but I think we've gotten to realize that we've got a father in heaven. He loves us, and we've got a big brother who goes to whom we have concerns and we got to realize that God wants good things for us that we don't receive sometimes because we don't think God's out there with wonderful gifts for us. Jesus wants us to know we've got it daddy you cares lands for us. Plans not to harm us but for hope in the future so we got a start the day looking in the mirror, see, and so when his chosen and holy and dearly loved by our Creator rights will thank you for listing today.

Remember slowdown.

Jesus walked everywhere he went, got it all done 33 years
