Grace for your spirit March 15, 2013

Grace for your spirit
But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good; abstain from every form of evil.  I Thessalonians 5:21-22

Life is a combination of negative and positive forces.  When we start our car, there is a negative post and a positive post on our battery.  Without both of them, the car won't start  The same is true with life.  As Christians, often we are seen as totally negative.  Is everything negative and filled with Thou shalt not's?  For some it is, and we need to change that.  There are some things we must oppose, but we also need to propose another course of action.  On this passage alone, I see two positives with one negative.  Examine and hold fast to good; positive.  Abstain from evil; negative.  Thou shalt not's are important, but loving God with all our heart soul and mind is more important.  Let's try to end of on the positive note.
