I was a wrestler in high school, hard to imagine I know. Ā During matches there were many voices yelling at me. Ā My teammates, my coach, my parents, the cheerleaders, the fans,the other teams fans… it was hard to focus on who I was supposed to be listening to.

Sometimes an inner voice yells at us to justify behavior that isn’t Christ-like or demeans the value that we know have in Christ.

Then there are voices from the world (don’t be so radical, religion is a private affair, you are being intolerant, narrow-minded, old-fashioned. Ā The Bible isn’t relevant, etc.)

Who are we listening to? Ā Jesus? Ā Or to something or somebody else? Ā Be sure you are listening to the right voice.

This is Shane Vander Hart with your Caffeinated Thought of the Day.
