Like Nail Polish On Earlobes

We all have a job to do. Like Esther, at some point we have to face ourselves in the mirror and say was I made for such a time as this. Granted, most of us aren't going to save an entire race. Most of the time we won't even know the result of our action.  Most of the time, we just stumble through praying that when that time we were meant for comes, that we will do what we need to.  That isn't the point of nail polish on earlobes though.
Each of us has a job. If we do the job we were created to do all is well.  We work and the work is completed. It's when we try to do jobs we have no business doing that we  get in trouble.  My daughters have always enjoyed painting their nails. They have a rainbow of colors from which they chose. The middle daughter, her favorite is green. Lime green.  She had to learn though that nail polish belongs on nails. It doesn't work if you try to wear nail polish where earrings should go.  For one thing, your hair gets glued onto your ear by the slick enamel. Another problem is that it either flakes off immediately or stays on for weeks.  Then again, the biggest problem may be that you look like a goober when you have a big blob of green nail polish gluing your hair to your ear.
Sometimes its tempting to use nail polish where it doesn't go. Sometimes you forget to look for the job that God wants you to do and you look for the job you want to do.  It doesn't work if you are not doing what you are called to do.  The Bible warns us over and over that pride causes pain.  What could be more arrogant than deciding that you can tell God what you should do?  Sometimes the result of that misplaced splash of color last a minute. Sometimes you end up stuck with a big blob of green on your ear for a long time. Whatever the end result, there will be a period of time when you look like a goober.
Nail polish on nails though is a beautiful thing (even if it is lime green).
