what if you made a difference?

What if you actually did everything you talk about doing? What if you actually did the thing that you wish other people would do to better the world? Why wait for someone to do something that you were called to do yourself?
After all is said and done there will be more said than done. Meaning you can talk, talk, talk all day long, but that doesn't change anything. The only way anything is going to change is if you get off of your tush and do it yourself.
You can't sit around with the excuse that someone will do something, eventually. No! Do something about it now!! You feel sorry for the guy on the street begging for money? DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!
I'm not saying give him money, chances are he'll buy some boos, but take him out to dinner, be a friend, buy him some food. do what you would want other to do if you were in his position. No, it wont make a huge difference in the whole world, BUT it would make a difference in one person.

and it starts with ONE.

what if everyone in the world had a super power

If everyone in the world had a super power... that would probably not turn out too well. considering they could probably do whatever they wanted, control other people, and that would give the evil people in this world a reason to continue doing what they were doing and ruining peoples lives, unless of course the good people had an over powering superpower. I guess the world would be pretty much the same. sometimes the villian wins, somethings the hero wins. I guess it really depends on the person and what they do with the super power they are given. But if everyone was given a super power I would think that they would all clash and it would turn into a huge mess. thats what I think. or they would all cancel eachother out and nothing would change. because obviously everyone would be using their power for either good or bad. If they're using it for bad, then obviously the one using it for good is going to try to stop them from doing whatever they're doing. and nothing would happen, assuming the super powers were equally as powerful.

What If...

Romans 12:2

Romans 12:2 

"Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind."


When you give your heart to God that doesn't mean you can just continue getting drunk every weekend and do whatever else you were doing just because "God will forgive you." 

We are a product of the environment we create. If you go to parties where your friends are drinking, you'll probably be right along side them. Create a different environment! Don't put yourself in the situation, that, is setting yourself up for failure. 

Don't say your a "christian" when you're with your "church friends" then go to your other friends and do what they're doing. Or say you're a "christian" because you go to church... umm, going to church doesn't make you a christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car. What is that doing for the Kingdom of God? Nothing, besides making people think it's okay to "be a christian" but still live the lifestyle they want. 

The wrong environment will lead you to CONFORM. The right environment will lead you to TRANSFORM.

You don't need to Change, like a chameleon, because you can always change back. You need to Transform like a caterpillar into a butterfly. 



Happy Wednesday, SassyKassySue
