“Fools find no
pleasure in understanding
but delight in airing their own opinions.”
Proverbs 18:2
Seems like everybody
has an opinion.
Just ask them.
Doesn’t matter the
topic, give them enough time and you will know where someone stands.
God doesn’t ‘form’
opinions or shift His views.
He is Truth.
Truth does not change
with the times.
It remains eternally
true.
Read a newspaper,
turn on the network news and you will hear the latest polling results.
Then, I suppose the
expectation is that you will change to align yourself with those results.
If you are a believer
polls, opinions, culture and what the ‘majority’ says should never dictate your
beliefs.
Gods’ truth stands
sure.
That is the safest
place to be.
“God is not human,
that he should lie,
not a human being, that he should change
his mind.
Does he speak and
then not act?
Does he promise and not fulfill?”
Numbers 23:19
We are in a time now
where the truth is ignored, mocked and rejected.
Why?
Because ‘our’
opinions matter more – or so we think!
So what do we do?
We stand firm in His
truth.
All of it.
Not just the parts we
like at the moment.
We stand in His
grace, loving and praying for those in darkness.
We stand in His truth
remembering that “…such were some of you…”
We stand in His truth
ready to forgive, extend compassion and mercy to others.
We are not lukewarm
but are passionate in our love for Him and for others.
