It is all trash…
We live in a world that loves to talk about what other people are doing. The private lives of celebrities become headline news (i.e. Charles Sheen, Tiger Woods, etc.), and we talk about the most recent scandal around the office water cooler or coffee maker. And then we read Paul, and he instructs us to not even mention what the disobedient do in secret.
I think we talk about other people’s ‘trash’ because it is easier that dealing with our garbage. We allow our garbage to get buried under everyone else’s trash.
Today, can we deal with our own trash, and not mention what the disobedient do in secret?
Isn’t it amazing that God loves us in spite of our trash? I think God is quicker to forgive me than I am to forgive myself. Lately I am seeing how often I let Satan remind of my “trash” and consequently I am disabled from being the light He intends me to be.
