Boxes

Stereotypes, preconceived notions, closed-mindedness-why? God created diversity, creativity, difference and yet we, as humans, attempt to force every person, group, or creed into neat little boxes-when we are anything but neat or box-like. Why do we succumb to our own short comings? We must not be content to place or be placed in boxes-it limits His vastness and our own abilities and God-given diversities. He is not limited in how He chooses to reveal Himself or in whom He chooses to gift and use for His purposes-why then do we, as ignorant humans, assume to understand or comprehend the ways of God? We have placed God in a box-He will not remain there, and perhaps we should not either...
