Moments... like Miley.

Miley Cyrus.  All over the foam finger one moment and the news the next.  What was she thinking?  Or lack thereof?  She has people:  people that encouraged her; people that choreographed her; people that dressed her; people that assisted her; people that prepped her all for THAT moment at the VMA's.  And bam, it was a train wreck. You'll get no blog hate from this momma; my heart is sad.  Whether or not you're a fan, she has talent and skills that not everyone possesses. [My shower will attest to that!!] Last night for MC was a perfect example of the outcome of "people" in your ear.  You'll look great.  You'll sound better.  You'll be hot!  It will be HUGE! Well, it was huge alright. [ouch!]  Who has not been there with people in your ear? Only difference, most likely our HUGE BAM was not live at the VMA's and now the most searched item on Yahoo. [Thank you Lord Jesus for the things You don't give us.]  Place yourself in her weird, platform type

shoes for a moment. What IF your HUGE BAM moment was played live for the world to see. Over and over. Googled. Over and over.  Ok, maybe the country, the state, the county, the city, or just the eyes of few. Ohhh, you don't have a bam moment?!?!? [whatever]  Again, I am sad for her.  We all have shadows we want to outgrow, overcome, or move away from whether it be a bad decision or the moment when we acted a fool.  MC was trying to outgrow Hannah Montana and stumbled, ok, actually, plowed into the ground, but still, it's a fall. She needs grace just as I do. If you were watching that with your children and you felt the need to hide their eyes, you probably should have OR, here's a novel idea, used it for a valuable lesson (1) don't let people in your ear, (2) innocence can be lost, and (3) He has enough grace for MC and His grace is sufficient for even me!
