Thought for the day 9/7/20

Thursday 9/7/20

Wind can be mysterious, even alarming!  You can't see it, but you know it's there when it brushes your face or makes the leaves shake.  And you can hear it coming as it howls through the trees.  People can be like the wind sometimes.  They change their direction - what they say and how they act - depending on what's happening around them and who's standing nearby.  Do you do that? Do you say whatever other people want to hear? Or change the way you act - even doing something you know is wrong - just to fit in?  Don't do that! God doesn't want you to change direction like the wind.  Instead, stay strong for what you believe, stand up for what's right, and stand up for God.  People may laugh or make fun or even worse.  But remember that when God is on your side, no one can stand against you.
