Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the
fear of the LORD all the day long.
Proverbs, Chapter 23, verse 17.
I realize that as human beings we sometimes envy all
the attention people get in the popular groups.
I have found myself thinking that if I were to wear certain clothes or
behave in certain ways, then I would get all the same attention. It really isn’t worth lowering our standards
to lead that type of lifestyle. I don’t
want to be a “Sell-out Christian,” selling out my Salvation for the opportunity
to be popular.
Since
this is an example of the positive influence God has made on my walk
with Christ, this may not reflect the whole meaning of the Bible verses.
