WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?

 I am well known for not having an opinion on things like- food, where to go, times, and on and on.  Personally, I feel if I do not have a preference, and you do--WELL you have done the work of making the decision!  I can be very opiniated about some things, but the day to day mundane---I really do not care.  I am indifferent.  Or as the new generation says~





NOW to clarify---I certainly have things which I have firm and definite opinions on.  Beliefs and conjectures which have been carefully thought over and points of view clearly established.  Those things which are in granite for me are for the most part non-tangible.  The tangibles I am often not only indifferent to, but really prefer to not even spend much time thinking about.  Thus a peanut butter sandwich for lunch ALMOST every day.


BUT---I was recently presented with this concept--that I am carefully thinking over. 


GOD IS NEVER INDIFFERENT


This takes some deep pondering.  If indifference is an attitude, I find no evidence of God being indifferent in The Word.  If indifference is the lack of interest, enthusiasm or concern for something or someone, that certainly seems contrary to what we read in The Scriptures.


A point to ponder today as you dig deep to affirm what you believe and why.


"Do you see what we've got?

An unshakable kingdom!

And do you see how thankful we must be?

Not only thankful, 

but brimming with worship, 

deeply reverent before God.

For God is not an indifferent bystander.

He's actively cleaning house,

torching all that needs to burn,

and He won't quite until it's all cleansed.

God Himself is Fire!

Hebrews 12:28-29  (MSG)

  1. We cannot afford to be wishy-washy or indecisive when it comes to our commitment to God. I'm so thankful that He is not indifferent about His children!
    Blessings!

    1. I don't think we are purposefully indifferent---but we do let the world have far more of us than we give God.
      Blessings!

Your comments keep my writing and often cause me to think. A written form of a hug or a pat on the back and an occasional slap into reality---I treasure them all!
