VERSE:
Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may
become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a
crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in
the universe.
-- Philippians 2:14-15
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=Philippians+2:14-15
THOUGHT:
I guess it's only natural to think that the problems of our own
time in history are due to the pervasive depravity of our own time.
Thankfully the Bible repeatedly reminds us that God's people have
always had to swim upstream against culture. As children of God, we
are to be bright stars in the dark night sky of our secular
culture. Rather than constantly complaining about our worldly
culture or our time in history, let's light the path for others to
see another way to live.
PRAYER:
Almighty God, thank you for calling me to such a high and holy
task. I want to shine like a star against the darkness of the
culture around me. Please help me as I seek to live a holy life
that has a redemptive influence on those around me who do not know
Jesus. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
