Scripture: Psalms 1: 1-2, 4, 6
Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.(1) But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.(2) The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.(4) For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.(6)
Scripture Commentary: Are you the chaff or the grain?
Which way is the wind blowing you? Are you like the chaff being carried in all directions or are you like the grain that’s planted and ready to bring forth fruit for Our Lord Jesus Christ?
The more you are in God’s presence, the more fruitful you are. On the other hand, the more you allow those who ridicule God to affect your thoughts and attitudes, the more you separate yourself from your source of nourishment.
You can have contact with unbelievers to witness to them, but you must not join in or imitate their ways. You are God’s child and by being so, you must do your best not only to live His way but also to show others how God lives in you.
There are only two paths. God’s path which is obedience, or the path of rebellion and destruction. The path you choose determines how you spend eternity.
