Do You Have Manners?
By Mark Flippo
Luke 6:31 ESV
And as you wish that others would do to you, do so to them.
1 Corinthians 15:33 ESV
Do not be deceived: “Bad company ruins good morals.”
This is a subject that has almost disappeared in the last several years. Most used to say please, thank you, sir and ma'am! People will swear at you easier than they can be polite. Men would open doors for ladies. It still happens but much more rarely. Even the adults that would before be kind have lost their way. Farmers in our rural and country areas would pull over as far as they could and let you pass on a two-lane road.
That is how I was taught growing up. Now they just dare you to pass them. It seems like they want to run you off the road. Our society is coming apart at the seams. TV is a part of that mess. Too many emulate the junk they see on the TV. We need to get a hold of ourselves and our families and dedicate our lives to living better than the sinners of this world. We should be different than them. Are we? Bring God back to the right position in your life and that will correct some of these bad habits we have picked up.
