Harry and Megan

Harry and Megan have given up their royal titles.
I am sorry, but who cares?

Harry and Megan want to have a normal life.  Good for them.  So do we all.

The British papers are full of news about the royals.  Who cares?
Now our news is full of stuff about the royals and formal royals.

We have divided the world into important people and unimportant people.
Royals and not Royals.
How sad.
The British even have a word for non Royals... commoners.
Jesus never divided people in that way.  Everyone was important in his world.

Maybe the reason that we don't see normal, regular people as important is because we are predisposed to see people as Royal or not.

In Jesus world, everyone is Royal.  The server at the Pot Belli Deli = Royal.  The guy that changes the oil at the Kia dealer = Royal.  The person who cleans the toilets at Arrowhead Stadium = Royal.

Happy for Megan and Harry, but what about the woman who cut my hair?  What about the person who sold me a doughnut?  What about the gal behind the counter at the gas station.  They are Royal too.  Everyone is Royal in Jesus's world.

Let's stop paying attention to the British Royals and instead pay attention to those who are Royal in Jesus' kingdom.

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.  Everywhere.
