Thermometers & Thermostats

Howdy everyone! So very sorry I haven't posted anything in a while. I promise to begin being more consistent .

On the second which was a Monday we had a lesson from Richard. He taught us about not having to blend in with our surroundings and how it is a lot of the time better to stand out.
This is how the lesson started he asked us how thermometers worked so I want you to answer that........ OK now you probably thought that they change to what is around them. The same thing happens to some Christians people. Sometimes they change to their surroundings if they're surrounded by on fire believers they will act on fire, if they're around sinners they will most likely sin. They do this to get a sense of security from persecution but we should not fear persecution because it won't come from true friends and if it comes from strangers it honestly should not matter for we need only one thing in our life and that is a healthy relationship with Jesus if that happens all things should and most likely will be good in our lives.

Now think of a thermostat what does it do?....... OK what i came up with was they change the surroundings. Richard told me they also can't be changed by other things except for by the masters hand (God). So a thermostat Christan will not fear persecution and will stand up to it knowing it will strengthen them. A thermostat Christan will change a room of evil into a room of light. Hate into love. Sinning into worship.

So to sum it up who you want to be at school, work, home, or even at McDonald's. A beacon of light in a dark world or do you just wish to help thicken this plague of evil that continues to sweep this world.







GOOD Bad Down right delicious Straight up Richard
