Naturally unnatural

Which are you? Natural or Unnatural

It's not a trick question - I promise. Take a look at Luke 6:33 (I could link you to the verse here - but if I don't some of you may actually open up your Bible and take a look)

Do we follow the voice of our Creator to the exclusion of all other voices?

Are you uncompromising in your stance of right/wrong?

God expects us to stand out from the crowd - our high calling is to stand out - to be unnatural! Nope, it's not easy - the easy way is to just roll with it, to go with the flow, to be a part of what's popular and easy. Yes, unnatural - but where in Scripture does God ask us to act naturally? It feels strange at first, but it's what we must do - if we're truly a God-filled person!

We must be radical in our behavior and display the radical nature of our God -- "We are to do acts of kindness to those that least of all deserve it."

Hope today you can be unnatural in the way God has asked you to be!
