How we Americans like our gray areas. There are so many different ideas about what is right or wrong. People like to set their own standards. But the problem is, when we all set our own standards, then there really is no standard at all. Jesus said it so well—if I don’t follow Him completely then I’m against Him. If I’m not working for the Kingdom then I’m working against it. So how do I make sure I’m with Him? By studying His Word. By following His instruction. By asking His Spirit to guide me at all times and in all ways. I do not want to work against the One who came to save my soul.
