Unreasonable

“Servants, be submissive to your masters with all respect, not only to those who are good and gentle, but also to those who are unreasonable.” (1 Peter 2:18)

            It isn’t reasonable that you should be slandered for choosing to be a stay-at-home mom – but we don’t live in a reasonable world.

            It isn’t reasonable that you should miss out on a promotion because you won’t go out with the boss for drinks after work – but we don’t live in a reasonable world.

            It isn’t reasonable that being pro-life should mark you as being controlling and hateful – but we don’t live in a reasonable world.

            In an unreasonable world, you will drive yourself crazy trying to understand the reason behind the vitriol.  There is no logic to sin.  It deceives, it deludes, and then it destroys.  Living a Christ-like life in the face of unreasonable behavior is the definition of faith in Jesus.
