The closer we get to God, the more brokenness and corruption we can see in the world. For as we walk with Him more, the more wisdom we acquire. In that wisdom is where we can see sin clearer. Even as the world tries to label sin as something less than corruptible. In this, the less like the world we become. Sometimes it is hard to walk in a world that views things differently then what those of us who walk with God, know to be wrong. Though I would rather walk with God being considered different, than walk with the world and be anything different than who God has called me to be. Friend, when we walk close with God, we walk farther from this world. This is a good thing. Though not everyone is going to see things from our perspective. Although I have learned God has a way of placing great, godly, people in our life that do see things as we do. As God does. May we not compromise His wisdom, to fit in with this world. For a heart and mind that stays centered on God, gains something so much better than what this world can offer; salvation.

John 17:16 NIV

They are not of the world, even as I am not of it.

1 John 1:6-7 NIV

If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.
