That didn't take long


After Galatians 1:6-10
 

You heard it, you learned it,

you internalized it, and

in no time at all,

you deserted it for what

you thought was

the next new thing,

shiny and bright,

enticing you away

from the right and

the true. That didn’t

take long. What can

you be thinking? 

Someone walks in the door,

claiming to have the latest

revised version of the truth,

and you rush like children

to grab the candy? 

On the person who misleads

you, a curse. On the person

who accepts the distortion,

a curse. Ask the questions:

are you seeking the approval

of man, are you serving

the one, or are you serving

yourselves?

A great question to ask ourselves in this day and time . . .
