Spiritual Tug-O-War

Watch over your heart with all diligence,  for from it flows the springs of life.   Put away from you a deceitful mouth and put devious speech far from you. Proverbs 4:23-24

Sarcasm?

Look at the world and how it not only promotes a certain lifestyle of sarcasm, jesting, satire and angry venting, yet also makes a tremendous profit from step by step drifting from a Biblical lifestyle.

Meander through a store and turn your head right and left; products subtle and not so subtly play a spiritual game of tug-o-war.

Christians are not even aware that they are being pulled away from a lifestyle taught in the Bible.

Consumers are exposed to ranting journals, t-shirts encouraging sarcasm, and the list continues with products seemingly innocent and admittedly funny...but at the same time not spiritually correct....

Hence the term spiritual tug-of-war.

Now excuse me while I transform my "Why People Annoy Me" and"Ranting" journals into a "Be Thankful" notebook.
