SET APART
Today's reading:  Leviticus 19-21

"...I, the Lord am your God, who has set you apart from all other people."  Leviticus 20:24 NLT

Quite a reminder as I get up and ready for the first day of a new week.  The day following a great day in the Lord's house.  A day when most people trudge into work like little grumbling robots.

I have been chosen to be different.

I have been chosen to speak differently.

Work differently.

Accept challenges in a different manner.

React differently.

Make decisions that might not be popular.

I have been chosen to stand out in the crowd.

To, sometimes, stick out like an old-fashioned kind of gal.

To be seen as different in a world with over seven billion people.

To dress differently.

To raise my children in a different way than their friends' parents raise them.

God has not saved me from a fiery hell to allow me to be swallowed up by the crowd , dress like they do or act in manners less than befitting His child.

Oh, same's true for you, too.
