“THINKABOUTIT” THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
We can
say a lot about the world in which we live; but, there is no
truer statement than we live in a fast-moving society.
Things change at such a rapid speed that it’s hard to keep
up with what’s in and what’s out … what’s cool and what’s
passé. While a quickly evolving world can produce some
great inventions, it can also be a breeding ground for
things like changing values. The same wave that brings
about new products can bring about new standards.
It’s great to live in a time that is on the cutting edge of
technology; but, there needs to be a balance – something
that keeps us anchored to reality. Hundreds of years ago,
when King David was looking for a solid standard in his
life, he looked toward God and observed, “The Lord is my
rock and my fortress and my deliverer; my God, my strength,
in whom I will trust; my shield and the horn of my
salvation, my stronghold.” (Psalm 18:2)
Let’s enjoy a society that is constantly changing; but,
let’s not lose our grip on the truth that can and will last
forever.

Christ; this is Charlie Wharton.
