Against My Values?
This past Friday, a group of us drove into Columbia City in hopes of basically everyone of us to get something pierced. If you don't really know me, I am kind of against body piercing. I think getting ears pierced is okay, but the other things are sort of something that I was always against. Was I against it, or was I too afraid of the pain to do it and it was just my excuse? I am starting to wonder because I walked out of that place with my nose pierced. I yelled at my friends before for getting that done because I thought that it was a disgrace to God. I was angry at them and would literally pray that God would forgive them. And, here I am, one of them. I don't even know why I did it. It actually doesn't look that bad, but still! I feel like I have let go of that value. My main reasoning behind this is that I feel like our generation is doing all of this, but what is this going to lead to? My grandparents generation would never think of doing this! And then, my grandparents did things that their grandparents generation would never have thought of doing. My point is this. I feel like each generation is falling farther...doing things to displease God. I am not sure if it displeases God that I got my nose pierced, but if I were to ask myself...did I do this for the glory of God, I would have to say no.
