But Who Am I To Judge?

 i know some who try to tell me how holy they are and yet are malicious gossips.  It doesn't work that way.  Sporadic spiritualism and godliness is perpetual hypocrisy, as Spurgeon suggests.  Satan must really feel like dancing in  the streets when he sees us satisfying God-given needs and desires in ways that are outside the boundaries God has set up.  We don't like to have boundaries.  We want to live it up and fulfill every selfish need, not caring about the consequences.  Satan loves to watch us turn love into lust, acceptance and respect into pride, success into greed and pride.  i depend now on the Father to guide me into fulfilling my needs and desires.

The lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life is not from the Father, it's from the world. [1 John 2: 15-16] i am getting older now, old enough to have the majority of millennials shudder at the sight of me.  They marginalize us baby-boomers and don't want us around to collect the social security we've earned.  Most of them, i'd wager, are getting money handed to them milking some kind of disability and i'll let God judge them.  i'm only mentioning it but who am i to judge?  They're too lazy to work.  They'd rather sit around and play the same video game over and over again. i know they need Jesus more than my hard-earned money!

"Let us live in a right way like people who belong to the day.  We shall not have wild parties and get drunk.  There should be no sexual sins of any kind, no fighting or jealousy.  But clothe yourself with the Lord Jesus Christ and forget about satisfying your sinful self." -[Romans 13:13-14]  Imagine that! Jesus, who is alive, still prays for the likes of me!  Still serves His followers even wen it isn't the other way around.  i'm going to tend to my garden, knowing i'm up against the ruler of the darkness of  the age.
