Stand up for Christ

A dog highly educated and well-manner, and was hired to a company as a supervisor.
On the 1st day, he noticed a pig. The pig was not well-dressed and looked very untidy, plus he stink and also full of smells of alcohol. This pig hold a high post, not very high though. Doggie give a strong warning to the pig. The pig says he will change and nodded on the dog's command.
The pig did not change his character next morning. Again, the dog warned him, but he is not bold enough for action. Same thing happened for weeks. As the dog get busier, check and warn less of the problematic pig as he still produces good results. Neither does the dog know his resentment and his sensitivity of smell toward him is slowly decreasing.... Complacency grows....
One day, as pig and dog know each other much already, pig invite dog for dinner. At the sight of the pig u can tell he stinks, but the dog dont smell it anymore. They drink together.

So how are u doing after 12 days of JS, yo JS peeps? Do remember you've been thru the "2nd culture" and we are "3rd culture" ppl now. Plz "do not conform to the world", I (I mean we) love you and I do not want you to go back to "1st culture".
It's difficult, we are minority, we are normal, we're Christian. Like today lent medi, the truth we know, but do we succumb to peer pressure like pilate, or do we complacent like the dog? So, love Him, let Him continue to transform us, help us, as we stand for Him, share of Him, live for Him. God bless YOU!!

PS: no offence to pigs and pig fans, HAHA.
