“THINKABOUTIT” THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Wednesday; August 6, 2008

          While most of us would like to admit to a logical approach to life and proclaim that we believe that truth is truth; the reality of it is that, for most of us, some truth means more to us than others.  The essence of this observation isn’t in the accuracy of the message, it’s in our perspective of the messenger.  The more we like the individual bringing the message, the more likely we are to accept it.

         While it is human nature to assess truth based upon personality, the truly astute person is willing accept truth from any medium.  If we are really hoping to be the best we can be, we will approach those who approach us with an open mind, willing to listen and learn.

         Is there someone trying to convince us of a reality we need to adopt in our lives?  If so, are we accepting the message no matter what we think of the messenger?  Remember, we’ll be judged by truth, no matter how it’s presented to us.

          Think about it!  For the Madison Avenue Church of Christ; this is Charlie Wharton.
