Our present world does not love and honor those people who have a passion for right living. If the world truly loved and honored righteousness, there would be no sinful acts. The world makes fun of persons who have committed their lives to Christ and who live godly and devout lives. However, our time of open persecution is not yet come. In places that do not honor Christ, and where there is no worship of Him, there is persecution for believers.
Persecution has many forms.
Many forms of persecution are slow and subtle like a slow eating away at your willingness to live a moral and upright life. Taking tiny steps toward doing the right thing builds a righteous life. To live a morally upright and righteous life requires that you make minute by minute decisions to always do what Christ wants you to do. When you take care of His details of living right, His right living details take care of you. If you have been blessed by these words, please forward them to a friend.
