What
is the purpose of us being on this planet? Why are we supposed to live a law
biding life and always follow the rules? Why can't we just do what makes
us feel good and forget about everyone else? Lets look at life in a Petri
Dish for a moment. Mold and bacteria grow in there because there is
something to feed on, and there's enough sweetener or Agar in the dish to allow
the micro organisms to flourish. When the sweetener is gone the organisms
die.
Our spiritual life can be just like that too! We can take on these sweeteners that seem to make us a better person and spiritual person, but in the long run they are spiritual anchors.
Matthew 5:19 Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the
least of these commands and teaches others accordingly will be called
least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever practices and teaches these
commands will be called great in the kingdom of heaven
That's not the kind of people God wants in Heaven, one's that only feed on
sweetener. God wants people that can flourish on the word of God without
the sweeteners, the one's with bravery to withstand the world's taunts for
choosing what is right later instead of cheap immediate sweeteners.
Why not start some new good clean habits today?
