Today’s Thought “Permissible, Without Benefit” G. Ward

“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.” Romans 12:2

My mornings are the more interesting as I view the morning news (headlines primarily). Strangely, my approach in optimism (where news is concerned) is expecting the absolute worse. It allows me to subtract from the shock sensationalistic journalism produces. On today, here’s my discovery - Georgia State University students will have the option of selecting roommates of a different gender in the fall. This legislative process seeks to accommodate both opposite gender friendships (including partners in romance), and special accommodation towards the homosexual community’s comfort. These accommodations are sanctioned by administrators of the university that are either capable of having college aged young people or grandchildren alike. The advancement in educational prowess from young people is most certainly commendable. While producing greater occupational potential, it’s also introductory towards adult accountabilities. As many of you know, adulthood offers very little accommodations and is a great accentuator of parameter. Although the entirety of this may violate your moral perspective (as it did my own); it can more lend itself to a teaching opportunity unto young people (cf. Deut.6:5-7). Share the moral compass acceptable unto every generation, Holy God’s word (cf. Pr.22:6, Mt.24:35)…

Happy Wednesday!
