Psalm 119:49-64
Hot Indignation -- have you had that emotion recently? Psalm 119:53 stopped me in my tracks. It made me think about my reaction to sin. It convicted me. I was surprised at how accepting (no-indignant) I tend to be about sinful things...sinful people...our sinful world. Calling sin "sin" isn't P.C. you know (ouch!).
How do we stay awake to the evil of sin and develop a righteous indignation that honors God? Any ideas? Tami W.
yes, i have had many times but the difference now is how i react in a way that i would not be feeling guilty anymore because everytime i would be given the 'eyes' to see that is not honoring God i would speak to Him right then and there about it then whatever our talk may goes i'd act upon after.. but as i always here you guys say that it would really help a lot if we are always get founded with His words because everything will just flow. just thought i might share my experince.
This is a very interesting and important question. It's very hard for me to keep my Christian values when you're treated like old-fashioned or sort of silly/crazy. I tend to just "accept" what the other person is say, and then add something like "well I believe that ..... I don't want to preach at the person, but on the other hand I don't want that person to think I totally agree with him or her. Sometimes I just keep quiet. I'm not sure if it's the right thing to do or not.

One only has to tune into the news daily to see the evil perpetrated in our world. My prayer is that the people of God would not become anesthesized to it or accepting of it and take a stand for righteousness. There is a cost - May the Lord give us boldness and courage.
