Be holy in all you do

God’s Word challenge us in 1 Peter 1:14 - 15 (NIV) 14As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance.  15But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do. The world’s perspectives and ways are earthly ways, not God’s ways. Because many of us grew up without godly parents, we often learn only from the society around us. We often think that is the only way to do things. As a result, our thinking is moulded in the world’s ways without us even realising it. Thus, we may blindly, unknowingly just follow what we knew in the past. The Bible is saying that once we lived in ignorance. We did not realise that we were being moulded in the ways of wickedness. But now that we have been enlightened, choose to be holy before God. This may mean we have to re-examine some of the ways we do things before God. Things that we grew up with. Be humble enough to let God point it out to us. Be humble enough when others point it out to us.
