Day 4

Peer pressure is something I always thought about as a "teenage" problem. As a teenager, I never seemed to fit in with any one group, and that bothered me. Fitting in was important to me, so I did fall into worldly ways...drinking, smoking. Today, 30 years later, I really don't mind much that I still can't seem to associate myself with any one group.

Unfortunately, though, I really do want to fit into the group known as Christians. I am still uncomfortable proclaiming membership publicly, though. I guess this is because I'm afraid I will not represent Christ...that I will bring shame and embarrassment on myself and Christianity when I fall...because I know I will. Also, I know I'll have to make an effort, be constantly aware of, and, yes, CHANGE my behavior. For some reason this scares me. I wonder if I can live up to the Christian standard.

I guess this is where GRACE comes into play. I must learn to accept God's grace. I am thankful for this study, for it is through God's Word that I know I will be able to discover God's promises of Grace, Strength, and Forgiveness.
