We as humans tend to easily get bogged down in life�s ruts. We become victims of habit. We don�t like change, even if it becomes obvious that there ought to be change. There are times when we know we really should take a stand for that which is right, but we don�t. The reason we don�t is because of fear of being in unfamiliar spiritual territory, and of course � what will people think?
Perhaps the Holy Spirit has brought us to one of those divine intersections where we must choose the old, or the new wine. Here are a few guidelines for consideration:
� Don�t settle for compromise by simply going along with the crowd.
� Don�t take the easy way out.
� Trust God; go His way � no matter what.
� Defend God and His Word, don�t walk by sight, but rather walk by faith.
� Gauge all things spiritually.
