My neighbor--
How does he live, I wonder?
- Basho
It beyond deep autumn... in fact it looks like winter this week! And now with Facebook and Blogs I find myself wondering not so much how people live, but why the inconsistancy...
I mean, shouldn't what we believe be reflected in ALL our choices?
I've been thinking about this all week - and not just when I look at Facebook!
I think I started on this train of thought again last Saturday when I wondered out loud if our love for God is readily apparent when we eat and drink (!) how much, what and when... ? ? (1 Cor. 10:31; Eph. 5:18-20)
Is it obvious when we're hanging out with friends? (Eph. 4:29-5:20)
How about when we work: Do we work hard not only when the boss is watching in order to win his/her favor? Or do we show sincerity of heart and reverence for the Lord in all our work? (Col. 3:22-24)
Is our love for God apparent in our choice of objects of affection? (James 4:4; Matt. 6:21, 24))
I repeat... is our love for God apparent when we choose objects for our affection?
