Conformity = blue jeans.

The world is all blue jeans now. Size 2 to size TENT, I come from another planet or something. When people wore dresses and slacks. I even wrote a poem about it years ago, Sadly, people are also into gym shoes, or sneakers. Who wears real shoes? I do. They even make shoes now that resemble real shoes but are sneakers. Oh,add baseball or football caps. I prefer men with long hair like the Grateful Dead,lol! Can’t tell women from men, hardly.oh, I forgot! We are a society with no gender either, saying man or woman is evil. A huge loss…Pangie

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. Romans 12:2 NIV Amen my friend, you see it,.

At one time we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds of passions and pleasures. We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another. But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, Titus 3:3?-?5 NIV

True! Once you start conforming it is not easy to stop. Still the trick is getting along the best we can. God bless!
