The relevant Cliche

It's amazing where you can find inspiration. And to that I'll add that it's amazing how God works. The further I travel through life I've noticed a few things that are constant in God. And one of those things, which is another that you hear on a regular basis, but doesn't sink in until those moments that you don't see coming, but suddenly hit you like a ton of bricks. Some call it inspiration, some realization, even revelation. But often times, at least for myself, it seems that the concept you come to realize has actually manifested itself in front of you before many times, and it wasn't until that exact moment that you actually "got it." I realize that I'm being a little vague, and maybe even slightly dramatic, but my point is coming.

Take note of the little things that God tells you. Those cliche Christian messages have simple and powerful truths behind each and every one of them. That's the reason that they became cliche, is because someone at some point discovered them, through divine *inspiration* and they proceeded to attempt to communicate that to someone else, and so on and so forth. The cliche I want to talk about now is this: Do what's right.

Powerful words indeed in the right context. I'm not talking about the simple little questions I was asked before I was deemed mature enough in my faith, as a young man of only 5/6(can't really remember, but that's for another discussion), where a moral problem is suggested. An example would be finding someone's wallet on the street filled with money, as well as their identification. What do you do? Take it and ditch the I.D.'s or return the wallet intact? We know the answer, or at least the right one. No I'm talking about your life. You. Right now. I'm talking about when no one is looking, none the wiser. I'm talking about simple moments of truth that you come to in which you make a decision to do one thing or another. To be one thing or another.

I heard once, probably in a movie, that it's not what you believe, but rather what you do that defines you. And that is true. So this is the beginning of my part in echoing the call: Do what's right.
