So many people define themselves by their status, job title, money, looks, or comparison to others. Where does that leave God and faith in Him? Defining themselves by church attendance, participation, fellowship, service, tithing? Where does one rank importance on helping others and making sure your loved ones are saved? I get advice all the time on the dangers of the sun, wear sunscreen, wear a hat etc....yet they don't want to hear the dangers of avoiding or denying God. Huh? Where are people's priorities? I wonder. I see so many people change by money, a little success, a raise and they all of a sudden become someone else. How is that possible? How can we be so shallow and judgemental to one another. The bible says to remove the plank out of our own eye before we want to remove the speck out of others yet we compare and compete with each other all the time. We should be more concerned with building strong families and keeping God the center of our lives whether we are single and living alone or raising a family of ten. The basis of our life should be walking in God's will, not walking in the latest trendy restaurant with our designer trinkets in tow. Just think about it. How do you define yourself? Are your priorities in order? It is never too late to reorganize your life to God. Do it today!
Matthew 7:3
