In this present world it is all too easy to allow our personal standards to slip; still maintaining higher standards than the world, but considerably lower standards than than God would have us uphold. We need to make the effort to not only maintain our standards, but aim higher; to the stature of the fullness of Christ. Satan is relentless in his attack on our families, what it means to be men and women, how we use our words, and our assembling together. We need to raise the bar and widen the gap in these areas of our lives.
