Do you see People?
So, I have gotten back into listening to podcasts again. Mainly just two, Matt Chandler from The Village and Rob Bell from Mars Hill Bible Church. And strangely enough the kind of issues they are each bringing up are very similar. What they both seem to be hitting on is our view of the world. Do we see the world as a movie about us and other people are just subplot characters. Matt asked the question, "do you see people" , not just visually obviously, but spiritually emotionally... are you aware that other people exist not only in the way you interact with them. They have lives, souls and emotions and many times we just see people in the limited way that we interact with them. My question to the few of you who may read this blog is do you see people?

I'm trying. Because I'm in Dallas every Thursday I come across the homeless quite often I've been trying lately to "see" them because it's easy for them to fade into the background, almost like their part of the steps their sleeping on... less than human. I still have a long way to go though.
