Thought for the day

1 Thessalonians 4:11
.....and make it your ambition to live
a quiet life:
You should mind your own
business.....
As christians we are encouraged to live quiet lives and to mind our own business. The Bible says, make that our ambition. Some christians find it so hard to do. We feel if we know what is happening - to the point of invading someone elses privacy or getting information from others or roping people into your schemes, then we can handle things, control people or situations.
Key: Again, God has given to us a sound mind. A person can pretend as though they are 'losing it' by their speech, to see the reaction of people they are interacting with.
The problem with 'invading' someone elses life is that you are not minding your own business. Infact, you are revealing much about yourself. Nothing is hidden from God.
God has given to us life - abundant life. Lets live in a manner that is pleasing to Him.
