The world that we live in...

In His Word, God says that He is the same yesterday, today, and forever more. So, I do not understand why people get offended when others disagree with choices they have made in their life because it is not according to the Bible. Yes, it is your choice and God gave us the freedom to make said choice. But, that does not mean that it is the right choice.



I know that I have made certain choices and done certain things that are not in line with God's word. However, I have never tried to change the Bible or interpret it in a way to make what I am doing right when it is actually wrong. I have never and will never reject someone for the choices that they have made. I will love them all the same. But, don't try to make you are doing right if it is actually wrong.



This world is different from the world that I grew up in. There have been some good changes and strides have been made, e.g. Obama is running for President. However, there are some changes that make me cringe when I think what my daughter has to encounter as she grows up. It is going to be more difficult to instill in her what was basic knowledge to me when I was young. God said that if you raise up a child in the way of the Lord when he is young, he will not depart from it. My parents did this to the extreme. Although, I am not living my life 100% the way I am suppose to be according to the Bible, I cannot dismiss the Word of God that has been instilled in me. It is there. It is permanent. It is my guide on how to live in the world that we now live in.
