Topic: Expose (08/22/13)
I am a piece of photo paper. I was purchased by a newspaper, and then dispatched to the news department. I wonder what sin I might expose; will it be robbery, murder or the sins of a politician? Maybe I'll end up on the front page.

Someone yanks me out of the cardboard envelope. Oh, that light is bright. Splash, I feel the chemicals interacting, and I am shocked when a car wreck appears on me. O...oo...ow, someone with big hands clips me to a clothesline to dry. Oh my goodness, the big hands grab me again. Where am I going now? Someone slaps me down on a desk.

Suddenly, I hear the voices. I think the photographer is talking to the editor. "Hey boss, this was the car that belonged to the drunk driver. He was the reason that Interstate 494 was shut down for hours. The driver's blood alcohol was way over limit."

It's sad that he caused so many deaths. Oh, how pitiful that someones secrets will be exposed on the front page for all to see. When Jesus was on earth, he exposed the sins of the woman at the well and of the Pharisees. He did some good things. Even though Jesus needed to expose people, he wasn't a bad person. He knew that those sins needed to be brought to the surface. Humans were bought with a price just like the newspaper bought me. Jesus sacrificed himself so sinners can spend eternity with him. I wish humans would remember if they get exposed, Jesus can make them picture perfect."

Yes, when we are exposed to the fact that Jesus is both LORD and Christ we will see the light. This should cause us to repent and be baptized for the forgiveness of our sins so that our image will be front page news.

Very interesting "talking paper". I liked it.
