The Pressures to Conform

Conforming is a behavior accepted by most….but not by all. If all we do is conform, we are not forming new molds for what our future would look like. Our culture might try to restrict us to it’s vision of life. We might have to go private about our own life goals – unless we have no fear! My identity is personal. I must be in the world, but not of the world. Otherwise, how can we stand out? Mistakes will be made, but even those are part of God’s plan for me. The learning that takes place allows us to help others. Fear, bitterness, grudges – these all hold us back. If enough of us reject the world’s selfish views, we can form a “conformity” together as we prepare for eternity.
