Lord today I felt You saying You want to speak to me. I pulled my car off to the school where there were less interruptions and started watching the children… the questions that ran through my head… should the teacher not be on the playground with them supervising their play… should the teacher let them solve their own issues thereby allowing them to problem solve and negotiate themselves… suddenly I thought when did this all become an issue, we used to send our kids out to play, no concern of what would be correct and socially acceptable, why and how have we allowed other people to dictate to us what we will and won’t allow with our own children?
The problem comes in when we allow more media than Jesus in our hearts, homes and beyond and then we question ourselves according to someone else’s standard. I was explaining to my children today that as Christians we hold ourselves to God’s standard which is higher than a worldly standard so we need to respect each other more than someone in the world would, we need to do all things in love, we need to seek God first in every situation and from there answers will flow… not only answers but supernaturally inspired solutions to worldly problems and God will get the glory. Let’s put God on the throne of our lives, throne of our time, throne of our thoughts… let’s go to God and allow Him to supercede all human thought and wisdom and permeate our thoughts will and desires… from there we can reign in this world which is trying to make a mess of the simple God, family, life structure God put out in His word for us to follow.
