Daily Prompt

Are you superstitious?

Today’s daily prompt brings my instant response to the pair of two descriptive words: suspicious vs. superstitious.  Neither suspicious nor superstitious characteristics belongs to the wise.  The one who is suspicious does not believe anything, while the other who is superstitious blindly believes everything.  

Suspicious of the truth is superstitious to the falsehood; superstitious to the false super powers leads one’s way in the darkness.  The truth is no friend of the falsehood, and the light of life removes lives from the darkness.  Those who reject reality do not lead to enlightenment, but rather to a dangerous form of ignorance.  

Jesus Christ is the Truth and the Way and the Life; Lord of lords and King of kings (John 14:6 & Revelation 19:16).  People who deny God seek their own ways, and their own ways lead them to destruction while those who do not receive Jesus Christ as their Lord walk into their eternal death.  

If one claims that he or she believes Jesus but does not believe “in” Him, his or her belief is superficial or could be termed as superstitious.  Whether being suspicious or being superstitious, either leads not to life but to death—the eternal death.

I believe in Jesus, who is Christ and the Son of living God, and I walk His way, follow His truth and abide in His life.  Living in the truth keeps life in peace, whereas living in the falsehood fills the void with unfounded fears.  

Which one of the two would you choose?

Exodus 20:3-6

“You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.”

Revelation 1:8 

“I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.”
