“With respect to this they are surprised when you do not join them in the same flood of debauchery, and they malign you; but they will give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead. For this is why the gospel was preached even to those who are dead, that though judged in the flesh the way people are, they might live in the spirit the way God does.”
(1 Peter 4:4-6)
There was once a time when what others thought of me meant everything to me. I was enslaved to the opinions of flawed people who were no better/worse than myself. But I didn’t see it that way back then. I didn’t know then what I know, or more to the point, Who I know now!
Thankfully I no longer live according to what other people think, but only that of my Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ! ☧
