it's a slow fade.....

My family had to make some choices this weekend that were not popular or even appreciated, but, they were choices that God has required us to make because we are to be holy and set apart, a chosen people.
".....whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, let your mind dwell on these things."
Phillpians 4:8

....be careful little eyes what you see....
........be careful little feet where you go.....
................be careful little ears what you hear.....
...........It's a slow fade when you give yourself away, it's a slow fade when black and white have turned to grey....thoughts invade.....choices are made...a price will be paid.
......People never crumble in a day, daddies never crumble in a day, families never crumble in a day.......it's a slow fade....
(Casting Crowns-The Altar and the Door)

I love this song because it speaks to the dangers of compromise which is so prevalent in our culture and our churches.

I am grateful to God that He was able to use your family this weekend! Whenever we do what is right, God is pleased. This weekend you were "doers of the Word and not hearers only!"
