Stuff I'm thinking about tonight:
Are the words "set apart" only reserved for Sundays? And even then, is it okay to yell at the old man in front of you going ten below the speed limit with profanities? What about the Wednesday night social meeting? Has it become a time to snoop & compare to figure out who's doing what? What are we praying? Lord, give me. Lord, help me. Lord, can I? Lord, why? All based off of discontent with current circumstances? ...OR is it really contentedness WITH the current state of our Christianity: Just enough God to get us to Heaven...but not enough to make us uncomfortable.
In a world that is full of darkness, I am ready to defy the crowd. In a world where pride is the name brand clothing, I will make my own. In a world where people are out to get people, I will be out to get God glory. This is not my Home and any comfort found here is only due to the fact that I rest assured in the hope a future established for me by my sovereign God. Lord, help me to live a radical life for You. Lord, help me to minimize the flesh that is attached to my being so that You may be seen. Lord, give me wisdom so that I may follow the path of righteousness and keep your commandments in a world where what feels good is best. And help me run with endurance this race You have set before me.
