NOT RECOGNIZED
Today's reading: John 1-2

"But although the world was made through him, the world didn't recognize him when he came." John 1:10 NLT

Imagine Michaelangelo not being recognized when he visited the Cistine Chapel.

Or Henry Ford when he toured a car assembly plant.

Or Bill Gates dropping by the Microsoft headquarters.

They didn't even recognize Him?

Was it because He came as a baby? Or from a family that wasn't well to do? Or from another town? Or with the pomp and circumstance of a warrior?

Or were they not wanting to see Him?

I believe there are days when that's my problem. I don't want to see where He is. I don't care to see Him in the eyes of others. I don't recognize His plan because it's different from the one I've wanted to come to pass.
