BibleGateway.com Psalm 15
How often do we ask how can I stand strong in a land full of so many overwhelmingly wicked people?
Be blameless in your walk, do what is right, speak the truth from your heart.
Do not gossip or slander (even people that deserve it).
Do whatever you can for your neighbor.
Once again do not say bad things about other people.
Honor God's people (even when it is hard) do not lift up the vile (even if it is easy).
Do what you say your will, pay your bills, honor your debts even if it will make your life less comfortable.
Be generous,
do not accept underhanded tricks to become rich or take advantage of the poor and innocent.
He who does these things will never be shaken.
Be counter-cultural, there is a common culture in this world. Selfishness. Do what you can to take care of yourself, el numero uno. How can you stand strong against the tide of this world? Hold on to Jesus and move in a way that seems incorrect to this world. Too often as we live we conform our Christian walk to help us blend into this world. I want to call on myself to NOT blend.
What can I do today to follow Psalm 15, and not live like everyone else?
