Ok, I admit it, that's Lady Gaga's line. As she pumps out lyrics telling us not to worry about how we live or who we are, you get a sense of feeling like you are ok in life, that all the stuff that has come against you does not matter, because Baby you were born this way! We love Lady Gaga, she's bold, unpredictable and massively entertaining and we can't get enough of her.
But is she speaking Truth?
When I go seeking for Truth, I always go to the Bible. It is the only book out there that can't be proven wrong, and doesn't hurt anyone by following it. I just feel that with all the conflicting information out there, with all the opinions, with all the disagreements, it becomes cluttered noise in my ear and I can't tell right from wrong anymore. Therefore, I go ask God.
Friends, in truth, you were all born in Christ, to have a relationship with Him, to have a journey with Him, and most of all to be loved by Him. We are also all born with the ability to be affected by sin, and we are, younger than you would like to believe and continually throughout our lives. I've come to believe that we are not able to have free will without the sin nature. Although it would be nice for God to get rid of sin, in doing so he would ultimately get rid of our ability to make a choice.
We all have different temptations, all surrounded by the same sin nature. It may look different, but it's all the same. "Sin" in God's eyes. One is not worse than the other, although in our world they might have different consequences by law. We all struggle with the same nature, and the only way to be saved from any of them, is a relationship with Jesus and the knowledge of God's word. If you don't take time to read the Bible, or if you ignore it because you don't like what it says, it's still the Truth.
So the truth of the matter is, maybe Lady Gaga is sharing some Truth, maybe she is correct when she says, no matter who you are "you were born this way." Be careful, though, that you don't TWIST the truth, and think that it's ok to live in sin... You can live in sin, it's your freewill choice, but by doing so, you are leading others down that path, and making a choice to be eternally separated from the one you were born for baby.
RaRa Oh La LA! :) Have a great day friends! You are LOVED!
