Octo…

So as I sit here and watch dateline, my thoughts are somewhat full. They are doing a special on the octuplets mom and I question my own ethical and moral beliefs. Is it right?  There are so many questions and perhaps I could (and even started to) delve into an opinionated rant on what I believe and what I think she should have done. I will have to chew on this for sometime. 

Speaking of thinking, perhaps this can be a good segue into “evaluating”. This has been and is becoming a great time for evaluating. In discipleship tonight, I challenged my friend to evaluate himself. As I have challenged him, I will be doing the same for myself. Perhaps you can be challenged to do the same to you. Who are you? What defines you? What motivates or drives what you do now? 

I’ll leave you with a short deal on Proverbs that may or many not be encouragement….

“The Lord decides what a person will do; no one understands what his life is all about. It’s dangerous to promise something to God too quickly. After you’ve thought about it, it may be too late. The Lord looks deep inside people and searches through their thoughts.”  Man, we don’t have a clue and yet we make bold claims to God without serious consideration of what that commitment looks like. God knows us.
