The word “fungus” sounds yucky. There is an abundance of mushrooms in the woods where I walk the dogs. Mushrooms come in all shapes, sizes, and colors. In fact, they are not yucky, but quite beautiful when you look closer.

I am reminded that mushrooms are like people who come in all shapes, sizes, and colors. In God’s eyes we are all valued because He sees more than just our outward appearances and knows that, despite our differences, we are all beautiful.

 

1 Peter 3:4 “Rather, it should be that your inner self, the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is of great worth in God’s sight.”
