Products of our environment.

You’ve heard the phrase “you are what you eat.” Well, it also stands to reason that we are products of the environment we grow up in.

This typically means that where you grow up and the culture you’re living in may influence decisions you make today.

Sadly, this means that if you grew up in a bad home where alcohol was used on a daily basis, chances are, you could grow up to be an alcoholic.

But, on the other hand, if you grew up in a good Christian home, where your parents modeled Jesus and taught you how to handle money, and how to treat people, then you will probably turn out like them.

This world is getting to be a scary place to live. The norm is to hear of random shootings at least once a month.

There have been many people who have come out of broken homes and who have become successful God-loving people.

With God, all things are possible. So, don’t give up on kids from broken homes. God only knows their past and what they had to go through.

As long as there’s breath, there’s hope.

2 Timothy 3:14-15 - “But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus.”
