The righteous have an obligation, an expectation, to choose godly impact to be closest to them for growth and maturity just as Jesus Himself chose His own inner circle. Stay aware of the evil around us but stay informed, stay included, stay intense, stay involved completely in the will of God by renewing ourselves with the Word of God. My soul is my responsibility. We stay alive and well in our souls with our obedience. Flood it and fill it with Jesus and His word because that is the power of the environment of heaven having full impact in and through us here on earth.
