' I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the worl, but that thou shouldest keep them from evil.' St John 17:15
I read this today and learned a lot from it. I think in many ways we as christians live life in much the same way as otheres, we go to school, get married, rejoice and mourn but we are also very different. This difference isnt just the fact we believe in Jesus Christ as our Lord but also the fact we want to make him the normative for our lives. We should want to have everything through Christ alone, in hime and for his sake. This is what makes us different because it doesnt fit with the worlds agenda as such and this often results in us being out of step with those around us. But we should care about what those who dismiss Jesus from their lives believe because we are the ones whose concern is to see God's rulership and grace established in the world.
Stay strong in who you are and your love for Christ even if the world says no.
God bless x
