wildchild

When people do not accept divine guidance, they run wild. But whoever obeys the law is joyful.

- Proverbs 29:18 (NLT)

What a crazy world we are in right now, with social distancing and the fear of COVID-19 high on everyone’s minds, the anxiety can suck the life right out of us.

While we are staying safe at home, we have to remember to be alive.

What does it mean, to be alive as opposed to just living?

Does it mean to do whatever we want, no matter the consequence? 

NO!

We can’t just go off willy-nilly doing what we want, regardless of whether there are “stay at home orders” or if we are finally back to normal.

We can’t be a wildchild - we have to listen to what God is telling us, we have to obey His word.

Even when we are safe at home or in the shopping center with or without our masks, we cannot just exist.

We need to remember what we have learned, know that God gave us this life to live to the fullest, not be a wildchild, but to be His child, and that means to obey His word.
