Fruit Day 7
Show me Your ways, O LORD; Teach me Your paths.
Psalm
25:4
The influence of peers on a young person is often strong. For
instance, when a teenager begins to associate with a positive or negative group
of peers, he or she often begins to dress and use similar language as those in
the group. This effect is not exclusive to teens.
Many adults seek acceptance by becoming members of and attending
particular churches, social clubs, and charitable organizations, because they
want to be associated with certain people. Current trends or styles may
influence what we choose to wear or where we decide to eat. We may even allow
political affiliations and public opinion to guide our thoughts, even if
contrary to the ways of Christ. Instead of being like others, let us ask for
God to show us His ways and teach them to us.
Who and what is popular will change. Styles and cultures will
fluctuate. However, God’s Word is eternal and solid. What we desire nor what
our friends believe will always be the same as God’s ways. However, let us ask
for God to reveal to us His eternal ways. Let us learn His ways so that we will
not be led astray.
