Not of this world

"And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God." Romans 12:2

Do you ever tire of the constant draw for 'the biggest, newest thing'? It seems that in our world today there is always a great effort put into "being in". The newest fashion, the latest device, the coolest vehicle, the just-released movies. The world is drawing people farther and farther in by making us believe that it is important to be in the 'in crowd', to be excepted and approved. But are these the standards we want to be approved upon? I would hope not! My advice would be to stay as far away as possible from the newest and best things that the world is embracing. It is easy to get drawn in, but ever so hard to find the path to return.

"Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him." 1 John 2:15

Just some food for thought!
