Hello! Iron Girl here!

Ok, I am doing a study on this subject in my co-op. And I would like to post about it here.

Wise decisions.

OK, as a fleshy human being, [Christian or not] we do our best not to get into trouble. I mean, who wakes up every morning and starts plotting how to get into trouble? Like, 'mwhahahaha! *rubs hands together* how can I get arrested today?' Face it, the (normal) person doesn't do that.

A lot of the time, when we're in a situation, we ask the question: 'Is there anything wrong with this?' Many times, we try to find out how close we can get to sin without actually sinning. How can close can we get to the edge of the cliff without falling? Well guess what, eventually, you're going to cross that boundary and you're ganna fall. There's no turning back at that point.
[That's my attempt at an example]

Anyway, that's what we look like a lot of the time.
Face it, not only do we need a new hairdo but we look kind of dumb!
'Is there anything wrong with this?' is not the right question to be asking. What you should be asking is 'What is the wise thing to do?'

Another thing, 'How close can I get to sin without sinning?' Again, wrong question. What we should be asking is 'How close can I get to God in this situation?'

 [Again, another failed attempt at an example. I won't be hired out anytime soon]

This is what we should look like. If our only question is 'how close can I get to God?' Then we don't even have to worry about the cliff. It no longer exists in our mind.

One more thing before fly off in my Iron suit. :p Some people walk around living like there is no enemy. Yet, he is very real. And the more you deny that he exists, the stronger grip he'll have on you. Remember, there is an enemy and he is always on duty. 

1 Peter 5:8
Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. 



 Ephesians 15-17
  Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise,  making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.  Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.

Thanks for reading!
