Standing in the Flood

God Morning! Welcome to the Spanduvilous Dailies with me David Mitchell II on this hump day Wednesday September 9, 2009. As we start to down the path of righteousness, finally rising to the next level, people that used to be friends will turn on us, family members that used to help will shut their doors, and significant others will begin to loath us. What is happening? You think that everybody whould be happy that we chose God. Why does it seem like the closer and closer we get to God the more people we piss off? Is it us or is it them? Our routines haven’t changed, our attitudes are still positive, so what’s going on? The problem is that we have not changed outwardly, but inwardly. We know most people don’t like change. The problem is that once we truly stand for God we are immediately pitted against those who aren’t. That change to choose God makes life very uncomfortable. Now all of a sudden, they think that we think that we’re better than them, or they try to discourage us by constantly reminding us of whom we used to be. We stand there alone against the sinful world, outside of the matrix, truly seeing it for what it is, its actual face; flaws and all. We are despised for revealing its defects while being different, defiant, and courageous enough to go against the flood. We have to realize before we snap on someone,previously to choosing God, we were going right along with the flow of the world and fitted in perfectly. But when we Truly stood up for Him we began to go up stream against the current; bumping heads with everyone. Because our immediate surronding are still heading in the same direction as we are standing still, turning around, and beginning to head in the opposite direction. And of course now we stand out and people hate those who are fearless enough to try God. They hate what they can’t be; or rather they hate what they chose not to be by believing the lie that they couldn’t be. It will be hard in the trenches standing against the barrage of negative people, nay sayers, and nonsense. But just hold on till the end. Soon enough the currents of the flood will eventually flow in your direction as you start to replace friends, tolerate family, and restore relationships. Please read Matthew 10:22 KJV

And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.
