Today I was talking with my son and he began talking about how he has to stay in school for hours with people he don’t like. I immediately said, that ain’t you, stop acting like your sisters. Your sisters talk like that, but you have never talked like that or acted like that. He asked, why can’t I act like them? I repeated myself and said because that ain’t you. You are a people person, you get along with everyone.
How many of us look at other people’s behavior and decide we are going to act like them? We see it all the time with the sagging pants, with females calling each other out of their names, and they answer to it and think it’s cute. We see it with the latest fashion or fad. We see it with the drug dealers, hustlers, baby momma’s, rappers etc…
So, how is it, that we are quick to emulate those people? But, when we see Jesus behavior, we don’t want to emulate his behavior. We say; that ain’t me. The spirit and the flesh war against each other and if you don’t put the flesh under subjection, then it will always overrule the spirit. The bible says; no good thing dwells in the flesh. So, no matter how sanctified we are, no good thing dwells in our flesh. No matter how much bible we can quote, no good thing dwells in the flesh. If we are not careful, we will pickup other people’s behavior, and then they will be telling us, don’t act like that because that ain’t you.
Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.
