Drawing the line between earning money and compromising my stand





Last week I got an email from one of the advertisers in sponsored reviews to make a full positive assessment article about their product. I was thrilled that for the first time, my site was approved for this. I checked out the advertisers' link but to may surprise it was a breast augmentation website. I gave myself days to analyze carefully if taking the job really is worth it, knowing that I have to earn money but would I let myself compromise my stand as a Christian? I got the solid answer when I talked to my mom and the my godly counselor. Filtering the details, I personally don't agree with any part of body enhancement or augmentation and it would be such a ridiculous idea to give a positive review on this. haha.  I won't do it! There are other advertisers there that would book me for the job and God would lead them to me, at the proper time.

hi sarah! i salute you in your stand! it is really wise to seek God first for He gives us wisdom. I remember this verse: Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you. I just see the connection there. Anyway, have a Merry Christmas!
