Set apart yet sprinkled in the world

God is clear in His instructions to us.  We are to be set apart from the world, but this doesn't mean that we just hibernate in a cave, away from everyone.  In fact, God commands us to go into the world and make disciples in His name.  We are to seek out those who are lost and tell them about Jesus.


To be set apart means that God has His hand on us for a specific purpose.  Even though we may not be a preacher or in the ministry, our ministry is in the day to day living.  We are set apart for His purpose.  He will build character in us so that when it's time for us to 'go on the frontlines' we will be ready.


Don't get drug down by the evil in this world. Set yourself apart and listen to what God is calling you to do.  It could be as simple as walking across the street and inviting your neighbor over for dinner!


Romans 12:2 - "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect."
