By whose standard do you live by today? For many nowadays, there seems to be a sliding standard of living in place. Anything and everything goes – AND it’s ok! The new mantra is do what makes you feel good…and shame on anyone who objects to this feel good way of living. Besides, whose is it to say what is right or wrong? If I want to, then I will! Children have the same way of thinking…they do whatever they want to do, whenever they want to do it, however they want to it because they feel like it! They do not think about consequences or how their actions effect others or themselves. What a free kinda way to live life! If only this was true…
The truth is, when the parent comes in and deliver the consequence for that child’s actions, then they learn, “Oh, I’m not supposed to do that!” So then, the parent has put a standard in place for that child to live by.
It is the Word of God that sets the standard of living today. Not a life with no fun, but a life full of life! To many, this book is obsolete. Not for this time. Not for their lifestyle. Restrictive. But here’s the thing, our actions DO carry consequences…the choices we make DO effect us, others, and our surroundings both now and in eternity. BUT in all of these things, the Word of God teaches us how to live. It gives us directions and insights to make better choices. The Word of God…
